Fracture mechanics is a vast and growing field. This book
develops the basic elements needed for both fracture research and
engineering practice. The emphasis is on continuum mechanics models
for energy flows and crack-tip stress- and deformation fields in
elastic and elastic-plastic materials. In addition to a brief
discussion of computational fracture methods, the text includes
practical sections on fracture criteria, fracture toughness
testing, and methods for measuring stress intensity factors and
energy release rates. Class-tested at Cornell, this book is
designed for students, researchers and practitioners interested in
understanding and contributing to a diverse and vital field of
knowledge.
