Fracture Mechanics An Introduction

Fracture Mechanics An Introduction / by E.E. Gdoutos.

New developments in the applications of fracture mechanics to engineering problems have taken place in the last years. Composite materials have extensively been used in engineering problems. Quasi-brittle materials including concrete, cement pastes, rock, soil, etc. all benefit from these developmen...
