This book presents the theoretical concepts of stress and strain,
as well as the strengthening and fracture mechanisms of engineering
materials in an accessible level for non-expert readers, but
without losing scientific rigor. This volume fills the gap between
the specialized books on mechanical behavior, physical metallurgy
and material science and engineering books on strength of
materials, structural design and materials failure. Therefore it is
intended for college students and practicing engineers that are
learning for the first time the mechanical behavior and failure of
engineering materials or wish to deepen their understanding on
these topics. The book includes specific topics seldom covered in
other books, such as: how to determine a state of stress, the
relation between stress definition and mechanical design, or the
theory behind the methods included in industrial standards to
assess defects or to determine fatigue life. The emphasis is put
into the link between scientific knowledge and practical
applications, including solved problems of the main topics, such as
stress and strain calculation. Mohr's Circle, yield criteria,
fracture mechanics, fatigue and creep life prediction. The volume
covers both the original findings in the field of mechanical
behavior of engineering materials, and the most recent and widely
accepted theories and techniques applied to this topic. At the
beginning of some selected topics that by the author's judgement
are transcendental for this field of study, the prime references
are given, as well as a brief biographical semblance of those who
were the pioneers or original contributors. Finally, the intention
of this book is to be a textbook for undergraduate and graduate
courses on Mechanical Behavior, Mechanical Metallurgy and Materials
Science, as well as a consulting and/or training material for
practicing engineers in industry that deal with mechanical design,
materials selection, material processing, structural integrity
assessment, and for researchers that incursion for the first time
in the topics covered in this book.
