Before a structure or component can be completed, before any
analytical model can be constructed, and even before the design can
be formulated, you must have a fundamental understanding of damage
behavior in order to produce a safe and effective design. Damage
Mechanics presents the underlying principles of continuum damage
mechanics along with the latest research. The authors consider both
isotropic and anisotropic theories as well as elastic and
elasto-plastic damage analyses using a self-contained, easily
understood approach. Beginning with the requisite mathematics,
Damage Mechanics guides you from the very basic concepts to
advanced mathematical and mechanical models. The first chapter
offers a brief MAPLE(R) tutorial and supplies all of the MAPLE
commands needed to solve the various problems throughout the
chapter. The authors then discuss the basics of elasticity theory
within the continuum mechanics framework, the simple case of
isotropic damage, effective stress, damage evolution, kinematic
description of damage, and the general case of anisotropic damage.
The remainder of the book includes a review of plasticity theory,
formulation of a coupled elasto-plastic damage theory developed by
the authors, and the kinematics of damage for finite-strain
elasto-plastic solids. From fundamental concepts to the latest
advances, this book contains everything that you need to study the
damage mechanics of metals and homogeneous materials.
