Description
Cracks and Fracture consists of nine chapters in logical sequence. In two introductory chapters, physical processes in the vicinity
of the crack edge are discussed and the fracture process is described. Chapter 3 develops general basic concepts and relations in crack
mechanics, such as path independent integrals, stress intensity factors and energy flux into the crack edge region. Chapters 4-7 deal
with elastostatic cracks, stationary or slowly moving elastic-plastic cracks, elastodynamic crack mechanics and elastoplastic aspects
of fracture, including dynamic fracture mechanics. Appendices include general formulae, the basic theory of analytic functions, introduction
to Laplace and Hankel transforms and description of certain basic relations, for instance for stress waves in solids. There is an extensive
bibliography, containing references to both classical and recent work, and a comprehensive index.
Audience
Researchers and graduate students in engineering fields related to the science of mechanics and materials; in geophysics and in mathematical physics.
