This volume contains 132 selected papers presented at the Symposium which will be held on November 22-25, 1983 in Beijing and is the first of international symposia on fracture mechanics held in China.
In this volume one may find may eminent international figures in the field of fracture mechanics. Among the 132 papers there are 16 invited ones, which were specially chosen to cover major trends in fracture mechanics and written by eminent specialist currently working on the respective subjects.
All papers are grouped under the 6 headings, that is, 1. Elastic and elasticplastic fracture mechanics; 2. Applications of fracture mechanics; 3. Test methods; 4. Fatigue; 5. Fracture models and micro-mechanisms and 6. Fracture of non-metals.
70 papers are from Chinese contributors. It is the first time that Chinese scientists and engineering working on this field presented their studies to the outside world in such a large number and in various topics.
Anyone interested in fracture mechanics may find in this volume the recent advances in field. Anyone interested in the development in China may find in this volume the state of the art of fracture mechanics studies in China. This proceeding may serve also as a reference book for engineers, applied mathematicians, metallurgists, physicists and other scientists, as well as graduated students and undergraduate students.
