Dynamic fracture mechanics
Dynamic fracture mechanics is written by a very well known professro-L B Freund. Honestly, I have only read a small part of the book. However, I recommend this book because after reading this book, you can learn many things which haven't be touched in the class, as stated by Zhigang in the beginning of the class.
Stress Corrosion
A glass may withstand a static load for a long time (days, weeks, or years) and then, without warning, breaks suddenly. Here are salient empirical observations:
thermal radiation analysis in ansys workbench 12
Hello everybody,
I have been assigned the task of performing thermal analysis of electronic components that involve conduction and radiation only and determine the temperature distribution on them. I am doing this in ansys workbench 12. Since I am doing thermal analysis for the first time so having problems.
Does anybody have tutorials related to performing thermal analysis in ansys workbench. Please share.
Thanks in advance.

Atomistic Modeling of Materials Failure by M. J. Buehler
This book is an introduction to molecular and atomistic modeling techniques applied to solid deformation and fracture. Focusing on various brittle, ductile and geometrically confined materials, this book includes computational methods at the atomistic scale, and describes how these techniques can be used to model the dynamics of crack, dislocations and other deformation mechanisms.
getting interfacial strain
i have modelled a 3D RC beam and strengthened it with FRP and used cohesive elment for modelling the adhesive .
so for finding theinterfacial strain between concrete and FRP ,which strain must I opt for namely , E, NE, LE, PE
And i want to know what theses stand for(E11, NE11, LE22) . I hav read it in manual but can I get more information on this
Elementary Engineering Fracture Mechanics by David Broek
I think this book is a good complement to the course Fracture Mechanics ES 247. There are several reasons:
