Chapter I deals with viscoplastic
behavior, as shown, for example, at low temperatures by the effects of
oscillatory loads and at high temperatures by creep under steady load.
Chapter 2 treats damage phenomena
encountered in all materials - for example, metals, polymers, glasses, concretes
- such as cavitation, fatigue and stress-corrosion cracking.
Chapter 3 treats those concepts of
fracture mechanics that are needed for the understanding of resistance to
cracking and Chapter 4 completes the volume with a survey of the main concepts
of contact mechanics.
As with Volume I, each
chapter has a set of exercises, either with solutions or with indications of how
to attack the problem; and there are many explanatory diagrams and other
illustrations.
