Fracture and Society
Advances in Research on the Strength and Fracture of Materials: Volume 4—Fracture and Society contains the proceedings of the Fourth International Conference on Fracture, held at the University of Waterloo, Canada, in June 1977. The papers review the social implications of fracture in a wide range of materials, with emphasis on education and politics. This volume is comprised of 22 chapters and opens by discussing fracture and fracture mechanics before introducing the reader to fracture problems in nuclear reactors; plastic flow around a crack under friction and combined stress; crack closure in fatigue crack growth; and the effect of the atomic structure's discreteness on cleavage crack extension in brittle materials. The following chapters explore the physical nature of fracture in composite materials; political and social decision making in relation to fracture, failure, risk analysis, and safe design; and the teaching of fracture in universities. This monograph will be a useful resource for metallurgists, materials scientists, and structural and mechanical engineers.
Advances in Multiaxial Fatigue
Papers presented at the ASTM Symposium on Multiaxial Fatigue, held in San Diego, November 1991, to communicate the most recent international advances in multiaxial cyclic deformation and fatigue research as well as applications to component analysis and design. The 24 papers are grouped into five ca

Fracture and Fracture Mechanics
Fracture and Fracture Mechanics: Case Studies contains the proceedings of the Second National Conference on Fracture, held at the University of the Witwatersrand in Johannesburg, South Africa on November 26-27, 1984. This book presents case studies in fracture and fracture mechanics and highlights the problems associated with fracture, failure analysis, and safe design in industries as diverse as mining, power generation, transport, petrochemical, and manufacturing. This book has 29 chapters divided into five sections and opens with a discussion on the role of professional complacency in bridge failures. The first section is devoted to failure investigation and covers topics ranging from fai...
Strength of Metals and Alloys (ICSMA 7)
Strength of Metals and Alloys, Volume 3 (ICSMA 7) presents the proceedings of the 7th International Conference on the Strength of Metals and Alloys held in Montreal, Canada on August 12-16, 1985. The book includes papers on the work hardening of face-centered cubic single crystals; precipitation hardening; and microstructure evolution and flow stress during hot working. The text also covers papers on microstructure evolution and flow stress during hot working; the prediction of deformation textures in cubic metals; creep of copper-base shape memory alloys; and flow behavior of nickel-base superalloys at isothermal forging temperatures and strain rates. Grain refinement by recrystallization hot-rolling to achieve high strength and notch toughness in microalloyed steel plate; as well as the influence of mean stress on fatigue strength of TI-6A1-4V are also encompassed. The book further includes papers on the comparative mechanical properties of human bones; the effect of precipitation hardening on the decomposition of the solid solution in 7075 alloy during quenching; and the mechanical properties of stable and unstable austenitic stainless steels.
Advances in Fracture Research
Advances in Fracture Research, Volume 6, documents the proceedings of the 5th International Conference on Fracture (ICF5) held in Cannes, France, 29 March-3 April 1981. The conference was attended by 670 participants from 26 countries. The program consisted of plenary sessions with invited speakers, technical sessions with contributed papers, a poster session, and two round table discussions. This volume contains 14 papers that deal with topics such as advancements in fracture mechanics; the application of fracture mechanics in three areas: damage tolerance requirements for aircraft structures, toughness requirements for bridges and heat up and cool down schedule, and evaluation of in service NDE indications for nuclear pressure vessels; and the analysis of crack-tip stress and strain fields for stationary and growing cracks in inelastic solids under monotonic loading. Also included are papers on the impact of environment on fracture; the problem of fracture of large concrete structures; and microcracking in hydrogenated austenitic steels.
Engineering Applications of Fracture Analysis
Engineering Applications of Fracture Analysis is a record of the proceedings of the First National Conference on Fracture, held at Johannesburg, South Africa in November 1979. The papers presented in the conference provide a general picture of fracture studies in South Africa. The contributions cover the theoretical analyses of the influence of dislocation stresses in initiating fracture; practical design of steel components exposed to high-temperature environments; problems encountered in South African industry, such as rock drilling equipment failures, unwanted rock fractures in mines and safety problems in nuclear reactors; fracture study techniques; and formal applications of fracture mechanics. The book will be of interest to metallurgists, engineers, and materials specialists.
Modelling Problems in Crack Tip Mechanics
The general objective of the Tenth Canadian Fracture Conference was to respond to progress in the engineering sciences - in particular with r- pect to rapidly developing new trends in the theory and methodology of researcr and designing - and to the resulting needs of practical engineering in the specific field of fracture mechanics and related areas of engineering mechanics. The basic underlying issue is the theory and practice of physical analytical and iconic (reduced) modelling of the actually involved physical processes and of the responses of physical bodies and systems to actual energy flow - a problem which is becoming dominant in all fields of the natural sciences. Accordingly, the theme of the CFCIO was "Modelling Problems in Crack Tip Mechanics", a well defined and limited subject, the scope of treatment of which can be as deep and as comprehensive as an in volved researcher wishes it to be.
Fracture and Fatigue
Fracture and Fatigue: Elasto-Plasticity, Thin Sheet and Micromechanisms Problems covers the proceedings of the Third Colloquium on Fracture. The book discusses the development and applications of fracture mechanics. The contents of the text are organized according to the areas of concerns. The first part deals with elasto-plastic fracture mechanics, which includes topics such as fracture mechanics in the elastic-plastic regime and sizing of the geometry dependence and significance of maximum load toughness values. Part II covers the micromechanisms of fracture, which includes the aspects of crack growth under monotonic loading and the effect of secondary hardening on the fracture toughness of a bainitic microstructure. Part III concerns itself with thin sheet fracture mechanics, which includes R-curves evaluation for center-cracked panels and use of the R-curve for design with contained yield. The book will be of great interest to researchers and professionals whose work involves fracture mechanics.
