Books by Keyword: Lifetimes of Structural Elements

Description: Optimal design using advanced materials is an ever more progressive and challenging domain within applied mechanics. Here is an invaluable self-contained source of information concerning methods of calculation of fatigue limits and lifetimes of structural elements.
While in most texts the treatment of this subject is confined merely to a phenomenological approach, this book provides the essential knowledge for an analytical treatment of design problems as well as a unique collection of appropriate data sheets which are required for the quantitative application of accepted design recommendations.
