Explores rigorous upper and lower bounds for isotropic phase composites and their microstructure arrangement, focusing on laminated plates and stress-strain relationships.
Explores fracture mechanics, crack growth, and the weakest link theory, emphasizing the statistical distribution of crack sizes and the significance of the largest crack in material failure.
Covers Classical Laminate Theory for solving mechanics problems with multiple material layers, discussing displacements, strains, stresses, and equilibrium.
