Modern Applied Fracture Mechanics (eBook, PDF)

Beschreibung

Modern Applied Fracture Mechanics presents a practical, accessible guide to understanding and applying basic linear elastic fracture mechanics (LEFM) techniques to problems commonly seen in industry, including fatigue analysis, failure analysis, and damage tolerance.

Including applications for several software programs, AFGROW, MATLAB®, ABAQUS, and a web-based FM calculator, the book discusses appropriate models, assumptions, and typical input/output parameters. It provides a framework that will enable readers to quickly learn and use fracture mechanics (FM) software packages and/or write their own code to solve unique or standard FM problems. The book covers the fundamental concepts needed to successfully execute routine applications or conduct experimental investigations. End-of-chapter problems are included, along with real-world examples to enhance student understanding.

The textbook is appropriate for undergraduate students, preparing them for the industry, and for advanced studies in fracture mechanics at the graduate level. Industry professionals and researchers will find this book a valuable resource for understanding basic fracture mechanics principles and methods.

Features include:

• Provides broad, accessible coverage of common fracture mechanics concepts and applications.
• Focuses on applications, real-world examples, and numerical methods in fracture analysis.
• Integrates and explains current end-user software coverage for fracture mechanics.
• Includes numerous sample problems, software examples, and end-of-chapter problems.
• Includes a Solutions Manual for adopting instructors.
