This volume contains contributions presented at the IUTAM  Symposium on Micro- and Macrostructural Aspects of Thermoplasticity.  The symposium brought together 87 eminent scientists from 13 countries  working in the field of thermoplasticity with the aim of exchanging  ideas and stimulating interaction. The majority of the lectures  covered the main theme of the symposium, with a few of a more general  keynote nature and a memorial lecture devoted to the work of Th.  Lehmann.   This volume begins by presenting basic questions of material  modelling. Problems encountered in polycrystalline materials are also  discussed and the transition from the micro- to the macroscale is the  subject of several papers. The special handling of shape memory  materials, phase transformation, and damage is emphasized. A couple of  papers are devoted to experimental results and the various aspects of  numerical treatment. It has become clear that previously cited  problems, though approached from different viewpoints, may often be  handled similarly. Moreover, the processing of special cases  sensitized for a more accurate treatment in details.   The volume will be of interest to researchers in the field of  thermoplasticity.
