The design of mechanical structures with improved and predictabledurability cannot be achieved without a thorough understanding ofthe mechanisms of fatigue damage and more specifically therelationships between the microstructure of materials and theirfatigue properties. Written by leading experts in the field, thisbook (which is complementary to Fatigue of Materials andStructures: Application to Damage and Design, also edited by ClaudeBathias and André Pineau), provides an authoritative,comprehensive and unified treatment of the mechanics andmicromechanisms of fatigue in metals, polymers and composites. Eachchapter is devoted to one of the major classes of materials or todifferent types of fatigue damage, thereby providing overallcoverage of the field.
The book deals with crack initiation, crack growth, low-cyclefatigue, gigacycle fatigue, shorts cracks, fatigue micromechanismsand the local approach to fatigue damage, corrosion fatigue,environmental effects and variable amplitude loadings, and will bean important and much used reference for students, practicingengineers and researchers studying fracture and fatigue in numerousareas of mechanical, structural, civil, design, nuclear, andaerospace engineering as well as materials science.
