Fracture Mechanics of Piezoelectric and Ferroelectric Solids presents a systematic and
comprehensive coverage of the fracture mechanics of piezoelectric ferroelectric materials
which includes the theoretical analysis numerical computations and experimental observations.
The main emphasis is placed on the mechanics description of various crack problems such static
dynamic and interface fractures as well as the physical explanations for the mechanism of
electrically induced fracture.The book is intended for postgraduate students researchers and
engineers in the fields of solid mechanics applied physics material science and mechanical
engineering.Dr. Daining Fang is a professor at the School of Aerospace Tsinghua University
