Opis

The book presents new phenomenological cyclic creep – fatigue models for describing the fatigue life and behavior of time-dependent composites and nanocomposites. Certain criteria imposed on selecting the creep functions that has the potential of describing a wide range of materials behavior.

O autorze

Leo Razdolsky has forty-five years of experience in structural engineering. His experience includes material science; computer modeling; composite and nanocomposite structures, power plants and cooling towers. Dr. Razdolsky has been teaching various structural engineering and material science courses at the University of Illinois and Northwestern University. Dr. Razdolsky is currently an independent researcher conducting research work connected with high temperature creep of composite structural elements and systems. He is the author of four books in this area of expertise.
