Nonlinear Crack Models for Nonmetallic Materials - Hardback - 1999

Provides a survey of some of the most relevant nonlinear crack models, with the purpose of analyzing the nonlinear mechanical effects occurring at the tip of macrocracks in quasi-brittle materials - such as concrete, rocks, ceramics, polymers, high-strength metallic alloys - and in brittle-matrix fibre-reinforced composites.
