It is with deepest sadness and sorrow to hear that Professor Dusan Krajcinovic has passed a way. I have learned a lot from his papers and book on damage mechanics. His work has a profound impact on the development of damage mechanics for brittle materials.

Please check the recent special issue of International Journal of Plasticity dedicated to honor Professor Krajcinovic. This issue includes a detailed biography of Professor Krajcinovic.
