This book is the seventh volume of the proceedings for the symposium series on Fracture Mechanics,an annual conference devoted to the exchange of information among the universities, research instituti
This book is a practical guide to proximal femoral fractures, describing in detail, the treatment modalities and surgical procedures for different types of fracture.
With mutants living on a reservation under the leadership of Kitty Pryde, things grow complicated as infighting, international interests, and world hunger threaten to fracture the mutant community.
Detailing novel, cutting-edge methods of evaluating brittle fracture and fatigue, this book includes enhancements to the Neuber concept of fictitious notch rounding and new applications of the DJ-inte
The book includes the latest high technology on solving very important theoretical and practical problems on solid mechanics, fracture mechanics, structural analysis, elastodynamics, fluid mechanis an
This is the first book to consider rock discontinuity systems and individual discontinuities as the controlling factors determining fluid flow through rocks. It develops simple usable fracture flow
This volume contains a selection of papers presented and discussed at the 7th International Conference on Basement Tectonics. Most papers are devoted to the Major Fracture Zones in the Earth's Cr
This is an introduction to molecular and atomistic modeling techniques applied to fracture and deformation of solids, focusing on a variety of brittle, ductile, geometrically confined and biological m
This book presents a collection of examples illustrating the resent research advances in the machining of titanium alloys. These materials have excellent strength and fracture toughness as well as low
The Runaways' adventures conclude! Soldiers from Karolina's home planet arrive, demanding that she be handed over. Squabbling over the best course to take, the Runaways begin to fracture. Can they fac
The new edition of this comprehensive classic continues the tradition of offering the latest developments in the mechanisms of injury, the biomechanics of fracture reduction, and an understanding of t
This graduate textbook introduces the mathematical and computational concepts of contact mechanics and applies the combined finite/discrete element method to complex fracture and flow analysis. Mohamm
Revised to include current components considered for today’s unconventional and multi-fracture grids, Mechanics of Hydraulic Fracturing, Second Edition explains one of the most important features for
This book focuses on the internal fixation of long bones by using intramedullary locked nails in a closed technique. Intramedullary fixation fulfils the biological requirements for fracture healing an
The growing use of polymer composites is leading to increasing demand for fractographic expertise. Fractography is the study of fracture surface morphologies and it gives an insight into damage and fa
This is not just another book on fracture mechanics. In recent years, there have been many books published on this subject in an attempt to assess the state of the art and its applications. The majori
This book focuses on the internal fixation of long bones by using intramedullary locked nails in a closed technique. Intramedullary fixation fulfils the biological requirements for fracture healing an
Technology advancements such as horizontal drilling and hydraulic fracturing (pumping water, sand, and chemicals into wells to fracture underground rock formations and allow oil or gas to flow) have a
Fractures are a common finding in children and it is estimated that 2.1% of all children will suffer at least one fracture before the age of 16. With young children in particular, the question may ari
This book focuses on orthogeriatrics, a topic that has received little attention in the literature to date. As active members of the Fragility Fracture Network (FFN), the editors and most of the autho
