A forum of researchers, educators and engineers involved in various aspects of Machine Design provided the inspiration for this collection of peer-reviewed papers. The resultant dissemination of the latest research results, and the exchange of views concerning the future research directions to be taken in this field will make the work of immense value to all those having an interest in the topics covered. The book reflects the cooperative efforts made in seeking out the best strategies for effecting improvements in the quality and the reliability of machines and machine parts and for extending their fields of application.
This collection of peer-reviewed papers covers a wide range of topics: Fracture Mechanics, Failure analysis, corrosion, Creep, Non-linear problems, Dynamic Fracture, Residual Stress, Environmental effects, Crack Propagation, Repair Techniques, Composites, Ceramics, Polymers, Metallic and concrete materials, Probabilistic Aspects, Risk Analysis, Damage Tolerance, Fracture Control, Computer Modelling Methods (Finite Elements, Boundary Elements and Meshless), Microstructural and Multiscale Aspects. The work thus offers a timely survey of these subjects.
This two-volume set of 339 peer-reviewed papers covers the broad areas of Composite, Polymer and Ceramic Materials, Fracture Mechanics and Mechanisms, Materials, Mechanical Structure, Strength and Dynamics, Interface Failure and Failure Analysis, Nano-Mechanics and Structures, Damage and Failure, Structural Design and Optimisation, Fatigue and Crack Propagation, Materials Modelling and Computation, Concrete, Rock and Soil, Dynamic Fracture and Impact, Erosion and Corrosion, Smart Materials and Structures, Biomechanics and Other Novel Methods of Computer Modelling in Engineering and Science.
This special collection covers the latest theoretical, computational and experimental research on fracture and damage mechanics, as well as on structural integrity and durability.
This collection is the result of bringing together scientists from various countries in order to combine their knowledge concerning the latest analytical, experimental and numerical developments in the fields of Strength of Materials, Fracture Mechanics and Fatigue.
This volume is made up of contributions from researchers in 22 countries. It aims to promote exchange of the latest experimental and theoretical results on structural integrity, durability and failure analysis; with the emphasis on fracture and damage mechanics.
The collection coveres all aspects of fracture and strength of materials and structure, particularly of advanced materials ranging from nanoscale to macroscale and modern structural systems ranging from large scale plants to micro- devices.
This book, which comprises contributions from researchers in 20 countries, was designed to be a forum within which to promote and exchange the latest experimental and theoretical research work on structural integrity, durability and failure analysis; with the emphasis being placed on fracture and damage mechanics.
