A. F. Bower is the author of Applied Mechanics of Solids by A. F. Bower, an online text whose title page gives his name as Allan F. Bower. The text connects elasticity, plasticity in continuum mechanics and fracture mechanics to explicit models of how solids deform. Its treatment of single-crystal plastic deformation follows slip systems and the rotation of the tensile axis, showing why a single crystal's response depends on its orientation.[ref]
