Deformation And Evolution Of Life In Crystalline Materials

Download or read book Deformation and Evolution of Life in Crystalline Materials written by Xijia Wu and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2019-04-09 with total page 418 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book walks you through the fundamental deformation and damage mechanisms. It lends the reader the key to open the doors into the maze of deformation/fracture phenomena under various loading conditions. Furthermore it provides the solution method to material engineering design and analysis problems, for those working in the aerospace, automotive or energy industries. The book introduces the integrated creep-fatigue theory (ICFT) that considers holistic damage evolution from surface/subsurface crack nucleation to propagation in coalescence with internally-distributed damage/discontinuities.
