دانلود کتاب Fracture and fatigue of welded joints and structures

The failure of any welded joint is at best inconvenient and at worst can lead to catastrophic accidents. Fracture and fatigue of welded joints and structures analyzes the processes and causes of fracture and fatigue, focusing on how the failure of welded joints and structures can be predicted and minimized in the design process.Part 1 concentrates on analyzing fracture of welded joints and structures, with chapters on constraint-based fracture mechanics for predicting joint failure, fracture assessment methods and the use of fracture mechanics in the fatigue analysis of welded joints. In part 2, the emphasis shifts to fatigue, and chapters focus on a variety of aspects of fatigue analysis including assessment of local stresses in welded joints, fatigue design rules for welded structures, k-nodes for offshore structures and modeling residual stresses in predicting the service life of structures.
