Progress in Fracture and Damage Mechanics

Brian George Falzon, Ferri M.H.Aliabadi

Open publisher page 0 citations

Abstract

Volume is indexed by Thomson Reuters BCI (WoS).This special-topic volume reports on new progress made in the analysis and understanding of fracture and damage mechanics. The Finite Element Method is a well-established analytical tool for theoretical fracture analysis. The development of interface elements which combine aspects of both fracture and damage mechanics has permitted the prediction of both crack initiation and propagation. A number of the papers presented here deal with their use and further development.
