Continuum Damage and Fracture Mechanics

Beschreibung

This textbook offers readers an introduction to damage and fracture mechanics, equipping them to grasp the basic ideas of the presented approaches to modeling in applied mechanics.

In the first part, the book reviews and expands on the classical theory of elastic and elasto-plastic material behavior. A solid understanding of these two topics is the essential prerequisite to advancing to damage and fracture mechanics. Thus, the second part of this course provides an introduction to the treatment of damage and fractures in the context of applied mechanics.

Wherever possible, the one-dimensional case is first introduced and then generalized in a following step. This departs somewhat from the more classical approach, where first the most general case is derived and then simplified to special cases. In general, the required mathematics background is kept to a minimum.
 
Tutorials are included at the end of each chapter, presenting the major steps for thesolution and offering valuable tips and tricks. The supplementary problems featured in the book.

“This book is a well-condensed, useful textbook that introduces damage mechanics and fracture mechanics. … The author has succeeded in accomplishing the scope and organizing the content in a very readable structure without losing any important information on this topic. … This book will be useful not only to students, but also junior engineers who frequently utilize these principles. I recommend this book without reservation to anyone who needs to learn fracture mechanics.” (Yan Hong, MRS Bulletin, Vol. 41, September, 2016)
