This book introduces a recent development in the theoretical research into the dynamic behaviour of fracture. This field is really a new trend in mechanical engineering and because of the interdisciplinary applications, physicists and materials scientists are also interested in the subject. The book has a review paper and about 20 high-level contributions. The main benefit to the reader is in showing how the recent development of molecular dynamics and other state-of-the-art methods can really solve the important problem of fracture from the atomic level.
Handbook of Peridynamic Modeling
This handbook covers the peridynamic modeling of failure and damage. Peridynamics is a reformulation of continuum mechanics based on integration of interactions rather than spatial differentiation of displacements. The book extends the classical theory of continuum mechanics to allow unguided modeling of crack propagation/fracture in brittle, quasi-brittle, and ductile materials; autonomous transition from continuous damage/fragmentation to fracture; modeling of long-range forces within a continuous body; and multiscale coupling in a consistent mathematical framework.
Fracture Mechanics of Rock
The analysis of crack problems through fracture mechanics has been applied to the study of materials such as glass, metals and ceramics because relatively simple fracture criteria describe the failure of these materials. The increased attention paid to experimental rock fracture mechanics has led to major contributions to the solving of geophysical problems.The text presents a concise treatment of the physics and mathematics of a representative selection of problems from areas such as earthquake mechanics and prediction, hydraulic fracturing, hot dry rock geothermal energy, fault mechanics, and dynamic fragmentation.
