Preface

Multi-functional materials as piezoelectric/ferroelectric ceramics, magnetostrictive and shape memory alloys are gaining increasing applications as sensors, actuators or smart composite materials systems for promising high tech areas. One primary problem is, however, that these functional materials suffer from various mechanical and/or electromagnetical degradation mechanisms as fatigue, damage and fracture. As a consequence of field coupling effects, fabrication processes and service loads, smart materials systems are exposed to high mech
