Daniel Charles Drucker (June 3, 1918 – September 1, 2001) was American
Drucker was known as an authority on the theory of plasticity in the field of applied mechanics. His key contributions to the field of plasticity include the concept of material stability described by the Drucker stability postulates and the Drucker–Prager yield criterion.
Biography
Youth and education
Drucker was born in New York City. His father Moses Abraham Drucker was a civil engineer, and Drucker wanted to follow in his footsteps.[3]
Drucker studied at the Columbia University, where he obtained his BSc in civil engineering in 1938. Next, in 1940 he obtained his PhD in mechanical engineering under Raymond D. Mindlin.[3]
