| Ziele |
(*)Overall scope and aims include:
(1) addressing and highlighting the importance of the subject matter in terms of the role of defects and cracks in governing failure of engineering materials and structures, which initiated the scientific and engineering development of fracture mechanics as an academic discipline,
(2) to develop a good understanding for the need of various fracture mechanics concepts for plastics due their inherent viscoelastic/-plastic nature with mechanical properties depending on loading rate, time and temperature, and
(3) to ascertain a sound knowledge base and foster a good understanding of the applicability and limitations of various fracture mechanics concepts to plastics, depending on their failure behavior (brittle vs. ductile to various degrees), and on the type of loading (dynamic/monotonic, static, cyclic) as well as other loading conditions (i.e., specific loading parameters and environmental conditions).
