EDITORIAL REVIEWS

Product Description
This revised and updated second edition of a highly successful book provides an authoritative, comprehensive and unified treatment of the mechanics and micromechanisms of fatigue in metals, nonmetals and composites. The author, a leading researcher in the field, discusses the principles of cyclic deformation, crack initiation and crack growth by fatigue, covering both microscopic and continuum aspects. The book begins with discussions of cyclic deformation and fatigue crack initiation in monocrystalline and polycrystalline ductile alloys as well as in brittle and semi-/non-crystalline solids. Total life and damage-tolerant approaches are then introduced in metals, nonmetals and composites. This will be an important reference for anyone studying fracture and fatigue in materials science and engineering, mechanical, civil, nuclear and aerospace engineering, and biomechanics.

review of suresh book  
Hi,

I use this book and it's more a big review of many articles on fatigue subject than a reference book. Metal fatigue engineering book is better for reference book !

Excellent Reference for understanding:Fatigue of Materials  
The Book presents an indepth look into Fatigue of Engineering materials.
This Book will be a good source of Reference for Students, Engg Professionals.

Materials fatigue review : the reference  
This book allows to have a very good vision of the fatigue mechanisms of materials and the way to model them.
Very exhaustive, very well documented : a reference in the materials fatigue world!

Comprehensive overview  
The topical (chapter) layout is extremely coherent, as well, the visual effect is appealing. Engineering students hoping to do future research in fatigue of materials will find the book to be a cursory introduction, although the non-specialist will find much of the overview of research activities overwhelming as an introduction.

Researcher's book on Fracture Mechanics  
Fatigue of Materials is a good book for researchers and students in fracture mechanics. Book briefly covers stress life and strain life fatigue approaches. Book is written at a graduate level with predominately theoretical content. Author also provides real case studies mainly from aerospace industry. Current topics such as crack retardation, small cracks, mixed mode, crack closure, etc. are covered in this book.
