Know about the book -

Fracture of Polymers, Composites and Adhesives is written by A Pavan and published by Elsevier. It's available with International Standard Book Number or ISBN identification 0080532004 (ISBN 10) and 9780080532004 (ISBN 13).

This book contains a selection of fully peer-reviewed papers which were presented at the 2nd ESIS TC4 Conference, held in Les Diablerets, Switzerland 13 - 15 September 1999. The meeting was designed to reflect the activities of the Committee over the last 15 years, and to plan future activities. The papers have been divided into four chapters under the headings of Composites, Elastic-Plastic Fracture, Adhesion, and Impact and General Fracture. These are convenient groupings, but there are many interactions between the areas, with the common theme of Fracture Mechanics underlying it all.
