Fracture Nanomechanics By: Takayuki Kitamura Publisher: Jenny Stanford Publishing Print ISBN: 9789814669047, 9814669040 eText ISBN: 9789814669054, 9814669059 Edition: 2nd Copyright year: 2016 Format: PDF Available from $ 23.18 USD SKU 9789814669054R90 Materials of micro-/nanometer dimensions have aroused remarkable interest, motivated by the diverse utility of unconventional mechanical and electronic properties distinguished from the bulk counterpart and various industrial applications such as electronic/optic devices and MEMS/NEMS. The size of their elements is now, ultimately, approaching nanometer and atomic scales. Since the conventional theory of fracture mechanics is based on the continuum-body approximation, its applicability to the nanoscale components is questionable owing to the discreteness of atoms. Moreover, for describing the fracture behavior of atomic components, it is necessary to understand Download ebook: https://ouo.io/zDHt1AB
