This quantity constitutes the court cases of the IUTAM Symposium on "Analytical and Computational Fracture Mechanics of Non-homogeneous Materials", held in Cardiff from 18th to twenty second June 2001. The Symposium used to be convened to deal with and position on list topical matters in analytical and computational features of the fracture of non-homogeneous fabrics as they're approached through experts in mechanics, fabrics technological know-how and similar fields. The services represented within the Symposium was once hence very huge, and plenty of of the world's maximum specialists of their respective fields participated. Given the huge diversity and scale of non-homogeneous fabrics, it needed to be focussed to augment the standard and effect of the Symposium. the diversity of non-homogeneous fabrics used to be restricted to those who are inhomogeneous on the macroscopic point and/or express pressure softening. the problems of micro to macro scaling weren't excluded even inside this constrained diversity which coated fabrics akin to rock, concrete, ceramics and composites at the one hand, and, at the different, these steel fabrics whose ductile fracture is strongly motivated by way of the presence of inhomogeneities. The Symposium remained focussed on basic examine problems with sensible importance. those matters have many universal positive aspects between doubtless disparate non-homogeneous materials.
