For engineers, materials scientists working in the field of fracture, fatigue and related areas.
Foreword. Fracture stress analysis: some "practical" examples (C.Atkinson). Some aspects of fatigue of engineering materials (H. Mughrabi). Failures of structures and components which fracture mechanics would have prevented (D.R.H. Jones). Interfacial cracking in thin film structures
(J.M. Martínez-Esnaola et al.). Designing against fretting fatigue in aeroengines (C. Ruiz, D. Nowell).
Aircraft fatigue life extension: development of a mid-life rework method based on peening (G. Clark). Coatings for hot section gas turbine components (J. Bressers et al.). Modeling cyclic deformation of thick thermal barrier coatings (D. Socie, E. Rejda). Application of fracture mechanics on Japanese automotive industry (T. Yoshimura). Gigacycle fatigue of high strength steels prediction and mechanisms (C. Bathias). Fatigue of railway axles: a classic problem revisited (R.A. Smith). Fracture mechanics applied to concrete (M. Elices et al.).
Fatigue and fracture of steel bridges (P. Albrecht, W. Wright). Designing against ductile fracture propagation in very high strength steel gas pipelines: a review (G. Buzzichelli). Fracture mechanics concepts and structural integrity of filament wound pipes (A.Torres Marques et al.). Author Index.
