This comprehensive book offers a systematic and standardized approach to fracture mechanics, drawing upon the authors' extensive research experience spanning over 30 years. It serves as an invaluable tool for designing and operating damage-tolerant structures in various critical technical domains. The foundation of fracture mechanics analysis lies in the stress intensity factor, which quantifies the intensity of stress at the crack tip. The weight function method, a powerful technique, is employed to determine stress intensity factors and crack opening displacements for complex load conditions, exhibiting remarkable computational efficiency and high accuracy.
The book provides a thorough theoretical background of weight function methods, accompanied by a comprehensive collection of analytical weight functions and stress intensity factors tailored for two- and three-dimensional crack geometries. Many of these functions have been incorporated into national, international standards, and industrial codes of practice, ensuring their reliability and validity. Extensive verification of the results is conducted, supported by numerous sample applications. Consequently, this book serves as an ideal reference source for graduate students, researchers, and engineers engaged in the field of fracture and fatigue of materials and structures. It not only provides stress intensity factors but also offers efficient and reliable tools for obtaining them, making it a valuable resource for advancing knowledge and practical applications in this domain.
