Introduction -- Static Creep Fracture Mechanism -- Loading and Unloading Path Effect on Creep Fracture -- Shear Strength Evolution during Creep Fracture -- Crack Angle Effect on Creep Fracture -- Crack Nucleation during Creep Fracture. Crack Recovery during Creep Fracture -- Chemical Effect of Water on Creep Fracture -- Constant Seepage Pressure Effect on Creep Fracture -- Cyclic Seepage Pressure Effect on Creep Fracture -- Dynamic Damage Effect on Creep Fracture -- High Temperature Heat-Treated Effect on Creep Fracture.

This book gathers a large amount of recent research results on this topic to better understand the static creep micro–macro-fracture mechanics in brittle solids (e.g., glass, ceramic, concrete, ice, and rock). To be precise, this is about to explore the effects of the external factors of stress paths, water content, seepage pressure, dynamic disturbance, thermal treated temperature, and the internal factors of crack angle, size, recovery, and nucleation coalescence on the static creep fracture mechanical properties in brittle solids. This book provides important theoretical support in evaluation for long-term lifetime in the brittle solid engineering (e.g., deep underground engineering, architecture engineering, aerospace engineering, and mechanical manufacturing engineering).
