David Rees is a senior lecturer in the School of Engineering and Design at Brunel University. He has published four books on solid mechanics and structures Basic Engineering Plasticity (Elsevier, 2006); Mechanics of Solids and Structures (World Scientific I.C. Press, 2000); and Basic Solid Mechanics (Macmillan, 1997) as well as over 100 journal papers in the fields of plasticity, creep, fatigue, fracture and engineering design. His research covers the fields of multi-axial plasticity and creep, cyclic deformation and interactions between creep and fatigue, autofrettage and buckling of cylinders and discs and sheet metal formability.
