Bringing together basic ideas, classical theories, recent
experimental and theoretical aspects, this book explains
desiccation cracks from simple, easily-comprehensible cases to more
complex, applied situations. The ideal team of authors, combining
experimental and theoretical backgrounds, and with experience in
both physical and earth sciences, discuss how the study of cracks
can lead to the design of crack-resistant materials, as well as how
cracks can be grown to generate patterned surfaces at the nano- and
micro-scales. Important research and recent developments on
tailoring desiccation cracks by different methods are covered,
supported by straightforward, yet deep theoretical models. Intended
for a broad readership spanning physics, materials science, and
engineering to the geosciences, the book also includes additional
reading especially for students engaged in pattern formation
research.
