| Summary |
Comprehensive Mechanics of Materials, 4-vol set, provides a trove of practical information about and insight into the properties, performances, and applications of a vast array of commonly used materials. It equips readers with a clear understanding of the main mechanisms of deformation, damage, and fracture alongside methods to account for them in analysis, design, and optimization of components and structures. Mechanics of materials remains the core subject of undergraduate education for mechanical, aerospace, automotive, and other engineering specialties. It has always been considered a demanding subject, and recent scientific and technological advancements continue to make it more so. Curricula used to focus on linear-elastic, homogeneous, and isotropic behaviors with the onset of yielding considered as the failure criterion. The reality of modern engineering, however, is more related to materials and loading regimes well outside the traditional framework. Engineers and researchers are therefore interested not only in linear behavior but also in large deformations, onset and evolution of damage, material performance in extreme conditions, as well as initiation, propagation, and arrest of cracks. Furthermore, metals and alloys are increasingly being substituted with composites and new classes of materials and biomaterials are being introduced into components and structures, while traditional materials are being manufactured with new cutting-edge techniques. Comprehensive Mechanics of Materials is the first to provide solutions to modern-day engineering problems, combining both a breadth and depth of coverage of advanced topics of mechanics of materials, including the latest types of materials, their mechanical behaviors, the mechanisms underpinning their deformation, damage, and fracture behaviors, and bridging analytical fundamentals with experimental methods. |
