Mechanics of fatigue

the long version

"This book offers an extensive study on the fatigue of materials and structural components of engineering systems. The core of Mechanics of Fatigue builds upon the synthesis of micro- and macro-mechanics of fracture."--BOOK JACKET. "Mechanics of Fatigue addresses the range of topics concerning damage, fatigue, and fracture of engineering materials and structures. This comprehensive examination serves those readers dealing with mechanical aspects of fatigue as well as readers conducting research in fracture mechanics, structural safety, mechanics of composites, and modern branches of mechanics of solids and structures."--BOOK JACKET.
