Overview
Damage and Healing Mechanics of Materials: Metals and Metal Matrix Composites covers the fundamentals of damage mechanics, with various damage models presented coupled with elastic and elasto-plastic behavior. Experimental investigations and the related data for damage in composite materials are included, as are computational modeling and simulation methods for investigating damage and healing in various materials and structures. Healing mechanics using both scalars and more general theory based on tensor notations are discussed, as are applications of damage mechanics. Undamageable materials, the generalized method of cells, phase field modeling, cyclic plasticity concepts, and more are all also covered.
