Description
| Summary: | This study treats fractures and related phenomena in the framework of analytical (rational) mechanics. It examines nonlinear systems, such as multi-parameter cracks, nonpotential loading, hereditary material properties and environmentally-affected deterioration. A unique feature of the book is that it connects two actively developing topics: nonlinear mechanics and the mechanics of fracture and failure.
