This book, based on the analogy between contact mechanics and
fracture mechanics proposed by the author twenty years ago, starts
with a treatment of the surface energy and tension of solids and
surface thermodynamics. The essential concepts of fracture
mechanics are presented with emphasis on the thermodynamic aspects.
Readers will find complete analytical results and detailed
calculations for cracks submitted to pressure distributions and the
Dugdale model. Contact mechanics and the contact and adherence of
rough solids are also covered.
