Opis

The assessment of the theoretical strength of cracked bodies is basically a problem of the Mathematical theory of fracture. This book aims to present simple,elegant & closed form solutions for both isotropic and orthotropic elastic plates containing cracks,based on the special mathematical technique and linear elastic fracture mechanics principles. Effective solutions for fracture parameters are presented.
