### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 







  
  
    An Excellent Teacher
  

*by T***R on Reviewed in the United States on May 1, 2003*

Alright, I've haven't read the final book. I do have an unfinished version that Professor Sanford distributed when I took this class from him at the U of Maryland. The initial version was excellent. I had tried to slog through other presentations on fracture mechanics and had gotten lost in the details.Rather than just presenting the stress intensity factor and other concepts, he gave a good historical development of just where these quantities came from and why anyone would or should use them to predict time to failure.

    Great text!
  

*by E***N on Reviewed in the United States on December 28, 2009*

This is a very good book for an introduction towards Fracture Mechanics.  The explanations are quite clear and author presents some straightforward derivations of many of the important concepts (derivation of the stress intensity factor, K, for example).  I highly recommend this book to anyone looking at 'breaking' in to this field.
