Description

Cracks and Fracture by Academic Press provides a comprehensive study of fracture mechanics through nine logically sequenced chapters. This technical resource is designed for students and professionals in civil engineering and mechanics who need a deep understanding of how materials behave under stress. The text begins by exploring physical processes near the crack edge and the fundamental fracture process. Readers gain a strong foundation in basic concepts, including stress intensity factors, energy flux into crack edge regions, and path independent integrals. As the book progresses, it moves into specialized applications covering elastostatic cracks and the mechanics of stationary or slowly moving elastic-plastic cracks. Advanced topics are addressed in the later chapters, including elastodynamic crack mechanics and the elastoplastic aspects of fracture. This structured approach ensures that readers can follow the transition from general mechanics to complex dynamic fracture mechanics. It serves as a vital reference for anyone studying the science of material failure and structural integrity.
