Riassunto
Fatigue failures occur in a broad range of engineering applications. This book provides the first comprehensive and integrated account of the science of fatigue in metals, non-metals and composites. The book includes mechanics, micromechanisms, example problems, practice problems and industrial case studies of fatigue deformation and failures.
