Dear Vicky,

I would recommend "Mechanics of solid materials by Lemaître and Chaboche.

http://books.google.co.uk/books?id=YfHTNHfjqXoC&printsec=frontcover&dq=Mechanics+of+Materials+Lemaitre&source=bl&ots=ksZTImY2qA&sig=khGcdGiR6nUfYxrSmGs6VLDpRpk&hl=en&ei=K0rATNbqNJa6jAePiq2ZCg&sa=X&oi=book_result&ct=result&resnum=5&ved=0CDEQ6AEwBA#v=onepage&q=Mechanics%20of%20Materials%20Lemaitre&f=false

It's a classic textbook, very descriptive, without neglecting elements of continuum mechanics. It treats plasticity, damage mechanics and fracture mechanics in the conclusive chapters, and in a very accessible manner.

Defintely a "must have" for every "mechanician".

Hi Vicky,

For teaching elements of fracture, failure, plasticity (and possibly, wear) a good book would be "Mechanical Behavior of Materials"by Meyers and Chawla (Cambridge Press).

The other book would be "Solid Mechanics" by William Hosford(Cambridge Press).
