"Fracture and 'slow' crack growth reflect the response of a material (i.e., its microstructure) to the conjoint actions of mechanical and chemical driving forces and are affected by temperature. There is therefore a need for quantitative understanding and modeling of the influen…

This book is an accessible introduction to finite elements analysis. The exposition moves gradually from simple concepts to more advanced theory, with the goal of making competent applications based on solid understanding. In addition to theory, considerable attention is given t…
"Philpot helps mechanical engineers visualize key mechanics of materials concepts better than any book available, following a sound problem solving methodology while thoroughly covering all the basics. The second edition seamlessly integrates the author's award winning Mecmovies…
This edition is ideal for undergraduate courses in vibration engineering. Retaining the style of its previous editions, this text presents the theory, computational aspects, and applications of vibrations in as simple a manner as possible.
