Featuring the latest research, Damage Mechanics presents the principles of continuum damage mechanics, including isotropic and anisotropic theories. The book also covers both elastic and elasto-plastic damage analyses, damage tensors, and the kinematics of finite elasto-plastic damage analysis. Many examples and problems illustrate the text, supplemented by a review of basic concepts such as the theory of elasticity, the theory of plasticity, and tensor algebra. With a comprehensive...
More DescriptionFeaturing the latest research, Damage Mechanics presents the principles of continuum damage mechanics, including isotropic and anisotropic theories. The book also covers both elastic and elasto-plastic damage analyses, damage tensors, and the kinematics of finite elasto-plastic damage analysis. Many examples and problems illustrate the text, supplemented by a review of basic concepts such as the theory of elasticity, the theory of plasticity, and tensor algebra. With a comprehensive reference list, this is a practical resource for students of civil engineering, mechanical engineering, aerospace engineering, and materials science as well as for researchers and professionals in these fields.
