This book consists of a collection of lectures prepared for a short
course on "Fracture Mechanics Methodology" sponsored by the
Advisory Group for Aerospace Research and Development (AGARD), part
of the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO). The course was
organized jointly by Professor George C. Sih of the Institute of
Fracture and Solid Mechanics at Lehigh University in the United
States and Professor Luciano Faria from Centro de Mecanica e de
Materiais das Universidade de Lisboa in Portugal. It was held in
Lisbon from June 1 to 4, 1981. Dr. Robert Badaliance from the
McDonnell Aircraft Company in St. Louis and Dr. Oscar Orringer from
the Depart- ment of Transportation in Cambridge are the other US
lecturers while Professor Carlos Moura Branco from Portugal also
lectured. The audience consisted of engineers from the Portuguese
industry with a large portion from the aeronautical sector and
others who are particularly interested to apply the fracture
mechanics discipline for analyzing the integrity of structural
components and fracture control methods. Particular. emphases were
given to the fundamentals of fracture mechanics as applied to
aircraft structures.
The impact of CIM (Computer Integrated Manufacturing) on the
competitiveness of industry is nowadays well acknowledged.
Significant increases in productivity, reduction of production
costs and the ability to modify operations quickly are amongst the
gains made when applying CIM technologies. The integration of
automation islands and the application of information technology
throughout manufacturing and engineering environments constitute
key tasks for European industry. ESPRIT (European Strategic
Programme for Research and Development in Information Technology)
is a pre-competitive industry-oriented collaborative research and
development programme in information technology. The programme is
managed and co-funded by the European Community and is organised in
close liaison with industry, national administ rations and the
research Community. ESPRIT has the following three objectives: - To
provide the European information technology industry with the basic
technologies to meet the competitive requirements of the 1990s; -
To promote European industrial cooperation in information
technology; - To pave the way for standards. The CIM part of the
ESPRIT programme addresses the application of information
technology in industrial environments. CIM-Europe is an information
and awareness activity of ESPRIT. Its aim is to consolidate and
enhance the effects of ESPRIT CIM by disseminating information on
progress and achievements in the programme. It stimulates
interaction between project teams in CIM and other areas,
encouraging the development and the application of CIM techniques
to the benefit of European industry. CIM-Europe's main activities
are meetings (Study Groups, Workshops and its Annual Conference)
and publications (Notices and Proceedings) ."
