Fatigue of Materialsby Subra Suresh (Author) Paperback: 580 pages ; Dimensions (in inches): 1.35 x 9.75 x 6.98 Publisher: Cambridge University Press; ; 2nd edition (December 1998) ISBN: 0521578477 This revised and updated second edition of a highly successful book provides an authoritative, comprehensive and unified treatment of the mechanics and micromechanisms of fatigue in metals, nonmetals and composites. The author, a leading researcher in the field, discusses the principles of cyclic deformation, crack initiation and crack growth by fatigue, covering both microscopic and continuum aspects. The book begins with discussions of cyclic deformation and fatigue crack initiation in monocrystalline and polycrystalline ductile alloys as well as in brittle and semi-/non-crystalline solids. Total life and damage-tolerant approaches are then introduced in metals, nonmetals and composites. This will be an important reference for anyone studying fracture and fatigue in materials science and engineering, mechanical, civil, nuclear and aerospace engineering, and biomechanics.

Principles of Fracture Mechanicsby Robert J. Sanford Hardcover: 404 pages ; Dimensions (in inches): 0.80 x 9.50 x 7.14 Publisher: Prentice Hall College Div; ; 1st edition (March 29, 2002) ISBN: 0130929921 Intended for a first course in the mechanics of fracture at the graduate level (or senior undergraduates with a background in engineering mechanics) the focus of the book is on the mathematical principles of linear elastic fracture mechanics and their application to engineering design. The material is presented in a conversational, yet rigorous, manner with the focus on the general formulation of the theory. In this way the origins and limitations of the simplified results presented in other introductory texts is apparent. The selection of topics and order of presentation in the book evolved from a graduate course in fracture mechanics developed by the author over the last two decades.
