Now in its second edition, this pioneering textbook offers students a complete treatment of the complex topic of nonlinear fracture mechanics, including a thorough examination of creep and creep-fatigue crack growth. This edition is augmented with further examples that are placed throughout the book to emphasize real-world practicality from first concepts. The second edition also adds achapter on interfacial fracture that addresses fracture problems in compositematerials and in microelectronics devices. Still, another new chapter early-on in the text covers the topic of linear elastic fracture mechanics to help make a seamless entry into nonlinear fracture mechanics.
