This unique, first of its kind, book offers an integrated treatment of the atomistic-continuum behaviours of single and interacting microdefects under elasto-static loading. These microdefects may take the form of nanocracks, microcracks, microvoids, inclusions, and inhomogeneities. Professor Meguid elucidates the subject matter using novel treatment that offers a fresh look at molecular and continuum mechanics, imperfections in solids, the Griffith crack, modes of failure and diagnostics at varied length scales, LEFM and multiscale modeling of interacting microdefects. Providing a range of perspectives from theory and applications, this book is ideal for college seniors, graduate students, practicing and research engineers interested in failure analysis, diagnostics and prevention. Fosters greater understanding of fracture mechanics concepts at varied length scales; Adopts a unique approach combining atomistic and continuum behaviours of interacting nano/microdefects; Empowers conceptual interpretations of content through a thorough treatment of the subject.
