Handbook of crack opening Data : A compendium of equations, graphs, computer software and references for opening profiles of cracks in loaded components and structures (with Disk)

Written mainly for specialists in non-destructive examination and fracture mechanics, this book provides means to estimate the opening profiles of cracks in loaded structures. Equations, non-dimensional graph plots, computer software, background information and references are given which permit the calculation of the separation distances of crack faces as a function of crack size, applied loading etc. Sixteen different cases are covered by this Handbook. A 3 1/2" disk is provided with the book but please note that no guarantee can be given that the programs will run without modification, or on a given machine, or with the designated software. No backup support is available.
