Explores plasticity in single crystals, including mechanisms of plastic flow and strain hardening, with a focus on dislocation behavior and geometrically necessary dislocations.
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 the basics of structural mechanics, including forces, materials behavior, and failure mechanisms, along with advanced topics and a historical overview.
