Here is what people are saying about the Deformation and Fracture Mechanics of Engineering Materials
4 Star Rating  "Excellent Reference"2009-10-05
- Reviewed By User: A2MV83GRYVT75N
This textbook reads more like an encyclopedia than a normal textbook. The presentation of the material is very thorough and accurate yet assumes a reader more mature in the material. I am using the text in a materials behavior course as a senior in mechanical engineering and many of my classmates have come to similar conclusions. Both my professor for the course and another in the same field also agreed the text is probably better suited as a reference rather than a stand-alone teaching tool. Overall, excellent text but maybe more useful for a more learned reader than I.

From Preface:

"In recognition of rapidly changing developments in the field of mechanical behavior of solids, the 3rd edition of this book covers many new topics with significantly broadened attention given to all structural materials, including metals, polymers, ceramics, and their respective composites. Most notably, a new chapter on the strengthening mechanisms in metals has been added along with extensive discussion of composites, which is treated and cross-referenced in 8 chapters throughout the book. In addition, numerous topics introduced in earlier editions have been updated, with every chapter undergoing substantial change. A solution manual for the chapter problems is available to qualified users. As before, special attention is given to providing the reader with many references for further study. A new supplementary reading list is also added to the end of several chapters. The current edition contains over 1100 references; of the more than 200 new listings, over 70% represent citations published since the completion of the 2nd edition in 1983. As such, this book should be viewed not only as a textbook for university study but also as a reference volume for professional use.

A major new section on composite materials was added to Chapter 1 and includes such topics as the isostrain analysis and the influence of fiber aspect ratio and orientation on composite strength."

Preface to First Edition:

"This book discusses macroscopic and microscopic aspects of the mechanical behavior of metals, ceramics, and polymers and emphasizes recent developments in materials science and fracture mechanics. The materials is suitable for advanced undergraduate courses in metallurgy and materials, mechanical engineering, and civil engineering where a combined materials-fracture mechanics approach is stressed. The book also will be useful to working engineers who want to learn more about mechanical metallurgy and, particularly, the fracture-mechanics approach to the fracture of solids. I have assumed that readers have had previous training in strength of materials and basic calculus, and that they have been introduced to metallurgical principles including crystal structure.

My objective is to make the reader aware of several viewpoints held by engineers and materials scientists who are active in the field of mechanical metallurgy: the crystal physics approach and the role of dislocations in controlling mechanical properties; the classical metallurgical approach, which stresses the relationship between micro-structure and properties; and the fracture mechanics approach which describes the relationship between material toughness, design stress, and allowable flaw size. The application of each viewpoint in the analysis of certain mechanical responses of solids is illustrated, with the hope that the reader will soon recognize which approach might best explain a given set of data or a particular service failure. I think that unless a proper perspective is gained regarding the limits of applicability of the atomistic, micro-structural, and continuum viewpoints the reader will become too involved in the fine points of concept that may prove to be irrelevant to the problem at hand.

The book is divided into two sections: Section One is devoted to a study of the deformation of solids. Here, emphasis is placed on the role of micro-structure, crystallography, and dislocations in explaining material behavior. Section 2, the larger section, deals with the application of fracture mechanics principles to the subject of the fracture in solids."
 
3 Star Rating  "Overall not a bad book, but not close to being good"2007-08-07
- Reviewed By User: A2BXEICOAU1WAP
Many of the explanations used in the book were well written but a bit hard to understand. Equations jump out of nowhere without any elaboration and the problems asked at the end come with no supplement or explanation in the chapter to help you out. I mostly had to look up the subjects on wikipedia to really get a better understanding of much of the material. Although I acknowledge this to be a book for an upper division class, so I'm not too disappointed overall with it, seeing as how I've already taken the introductory course to material sciences and it was my fault for really forgetting the minor details needed to fully comprehend the subject.
 
4 Star Rating  "Strong on Fracture, weaker on Deformation details"2000-09-08
- Reviewed By thduggie
I bought this book for a one-credit course at Virginia Tech and hardly ever used it. That, I believe, chiefly reflects excellent teaching methodology and not insufficiency of this book.

Back in Switzerland, I took a big, long course in deformation and fracture mechanics at the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology in Lausanne, and all of a sudden this book came in handy for extra illustrations and alternative explanations. While it is particularly excellent when treating fracture and devotes much space to this subject, deformation mechanics are often simplified or contain omissions in the derivation. Unfortunately, my course went into further detail than Dr. Hertzberg's book, so for the interesting details on deformation (e.g. a good explanation of the Lüders Bands) I must search elsewhere.

However, readers will appreciate the last chapter of case studies, which is instructive and sometimes even humorous (though it might require black humor to find a bursting tank of molasses funny).

In short, if you're into things that break, this book will make you happy. If you want to know what happens before, this book will help, but won't by any means be exhaustive.
