These problems, which are of  interest for many materials, especially all quasibrittle materials,  share similar characteristics. Thus, progress in the understanding of  scaling problems for one material may help progress for another  material. This makes it clear that a dialogue between researchers in  various fields of mechanics is highly desirable and should be  promoted. \u003cbr\u003e  In view of this, this volume should be of interest to researchers and  advanced graduate students in materials science, solid mechanics and  civil engineering. \u003ch3\u003eDetails\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublished by: Springer\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublication Date: 1999-05-31\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eFormat: Hardcover\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eISBN-13: 9780792358251\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDOI: 10.1007\/978-94-011-4659-3\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDimensions: 279cm x210cm\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePages: 435\u003c\/p\u003e ","brand":"Springer Netherlands","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44358652231820,"sku":"9780792358251","price":152.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0710\/9545\/1788\/files\/9780792358251.jpg?v=1771530545","url":"https:\/\/lateknightbooks.com\/products\/9780792358251","provider":"Late Knight Books and Services, LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
