Preface
This book has evolved from lectures on fracture mechanics and micromechanics which we held for students of engineering and natural sciences over the years. It is primarily meant as an aid for students learning the foundations of these subjects. At the same time this book may also serve as an introduction into these fields for researchers and practitioners in industry and to provide the theoretical background for solving respective problems. The book covers the most important areas of fracture mechanics and gives an introduction into micromechanics. Our major concern was the presentation of principal concepts and methods in a clear and sound manner as a basis for a deeper entry into the matter. The presentation mainly focuses on the mechanical description of fracture processes; yet, material specific aspects are also discussed. To keep the text self-contained, continuum mechanical and phenomenological foundations are recapitulated first. They are followed by a brief survey of classical fracture and failure hypotheses. A major part of the book is devoted to linear fracture mechanics and elastic-plastic fracture mechanics. Further chapters deal with creep fracture and dynamic fracture mechanics. An extensive chapter treats foundations of micromechanics and homogenization. Finally, elements of damage mechanics and probabilistic fracture mechanics are pr
