Fracture mechanics is the field of mechanics concerned with the study of the propagation of cracks in materials. It uses methods of analytical solid mechanics to calculate the driving force on a crack and those of experimental solid mechanics to characterize the material's resistance to fracture .
Learn the basics of fracture mechanics, a specialization within solid mechanics that deals with the propagation of cracks in materials. The notes cover the energy-balance approach, the Griffith criterion, and the stress-intensity factor.
Engineering Fracture Mechanics is a peer-reviewed journal that covers a broad range of topics in fracture mechanics for researchers and practitioners. It publishes articles on fracture behavior, fatigue, materials science, and engineering applications of fracture mechanics.
A concise and class-tested introduction to fracture mechanics, covering elastic and elastic-plastic fracture, energy flows, crack-tip fields, fracture criteria, toughness testing and more. The book is part of the Lecture Notes in Applied and Computational Mechanics series and is available in hardcover, softcover and eBook formats.
Learn the principles and applications of fracture mechanics, both linear and nonlinear, with detailed explanations and examples. This website is under construction and welcomes input and contributions.
The term “fracture mechanics” refers to a vital specialization within solid mechanics in which the presence of a crack is assumed, and we wish to find quantitative relations between the crack length, the material’s inherent resistance to crack growth, and the stress at which the crack propagates at high speed to cause structural failure.
A comprehensive textbook on fracture mechanics by Emmanuel E. Gdoutos, covering basic principles, applications, experimental and numerical methods, and current topics. The book is suitable for teaching fracture mechanics courses at the undergraduate and graduate levels.
