Fatigue of materials

摘要: Written by a leading researcher in the field, this revised and updated second edition of highly successful book provides an authoritative, comprehensive unified treatment mechanics micromechanisms fatigue metals, non-metals composites. The author discusses principles cyclic deformation, crack initiation growth fatigue, covering both microscopic continuum aspects. begins with discussions deformation monocrystalline polycrystalline ductile alloys as well brittle semi-/non-crystalline solids. Total life damage-tolerant approaches are then introduced composites followed more advanced topics. includes extensive bibliography problem set for each chapter, together worked-out example problems case studies. This will be important reference anyone studying fracture materials science engineering, mechanical, civil, nuclear aerospace biomechanics.
