Description
The book presents the principles of Damage Mechanics along with the latest research findings. Both isotropic and anisotropic damage mechanisms
are presented. Various damage models are presented coupled with elastic and elasto-plastic behavior. The book includes two chapters that
are solely dedicated to experimental investigations conducted by the authors. In its last chapter, the book presents experimental data
for damage in composite materials that appear in the literature for the first time.
Audience
Researchers in Engineering, Mechanics, Mechanical Engineering, Civil Engineering and Materials Science. Also suitable for Graduate Students
in Engineering Mechanics, Mechanical Engineering, Civil Engineering and Materials Science.
