In this paper we are concerned with a material which can support a finite stress elastically without flow and which flows with constant mobility(1) (or plastic fluidity) when the stresses are sufficiently great. Following Bingham(1) and Houwink(2), such a material is called a Bingham solid and the type of flow (purely) plastic. The transition from elastic to plastic behaviour takes place at the yield point.
