A collection of contemporary short stories about modern England includes monster tales, near-memoir pieces and mini-sagas of family and social fracture as triggered by sex, marriage and class. By the
A facsimile reprint of an 1821 reprint of an essay presented to the French Academy by Coulomb (1736-1806). Coulomb covers the bending of beams, soil mechanics, the fracture of columns, and the calcul
The 43 papers describe new techniques for characterizing the location and size of cracks, the extent of water absorption in adhesives and other polymers, neutron-induced losses of fracture toughness i
There is a commonly held perception that we don’t talk about money. Actually, we talk about it all the time?we are just having the wrong conversation. The result: finances fracture and even destroy ma
