MAE 7160 - [Fracture Mechanics]


Fall. 3 credits.

Prerequisites: MAE 6810  or MAE 6820 ; and MAE 6110  and MAE 6120  or equivalents. Next offered 2014-2015. Formerly TAM 7530.

Staff.

Mechanics of fracture, including linear elastic fracture theory and applications, energy release rate, J integral, experimental methods and a primer on computational fracture mechanics. Also covers nonlinear, rateindependent, small deformation elastic-plastic fracture mechanics, its applications and test methods for determining a material’s fracture toughness.
