Nearly double the size of the previous edition, the third edition of the classic reference provides a comprehensive, easy-to-access collection of elastic stress solutions for crack configurations. For each configuration, The Stress Analysis of Cracks Handbook presents crack-tip stress intensity formulas along with other relevant information, such as displacements, crack opening areas, basic stress functions source references, accuracy of solutions, and more. Throughout, it stresses formulas for application to test configurations. The introductory section details the methods of developing the information. A series of appendices presents special methods and special applications. The authors also provide 30 new solution pages, plus modifications of older solutions.
