About this book
Engineering Damage Mechanics is deliberately oriented toward applications of Continuum Damage Mechanics to failures of mechanical and civil engineering components in ductile, creep, fatigue and brittle conditions depending upon the thermomechanical loading and the materials: metals and alloys, polymers, elastomers, composites, concretes. Nevertheless, to help engineers, researchers, beginners or not, the first two chapters are devoted to the main concepts of damage mechanics and to the associated computational tools.
Reviews
From the reviews:
"Many new ideas are presented and discussed. So the book can be recommended to all engineers and students of engineering concerned with lifetime prediction and with the failure resistant design of structures, components and processes … . The book is an excellent comprehensive guide to Damage Mechanics." (H. Altenbach, Zeitschrift für Angewandte Mathematik und Mechanik, Vol. 85 (11), 2005)
