The various topics discussed here are the mechanical characterization of interfaces, the initiation and growth of cracks along interfaces, the origin and control of interface adhesion, focusing in particular on thin films on substrate systems. It is designed and structured to provide a solid background in the mechanics of heterogeneous materials to help students in materials science, as well as scientists and engineers.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eMuriel Braccini\u003c\/b\u003e has been a CNRS research fellow since 2002. Her scientific interest rests in interface adhesion in heterogeneous materials. Her principal activities deal with the microstructure\/properties relationship approach for non-organic materials.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eMichel Dupeux\u003c\/b\u003e was appointed Assistant Lecturer in 1970, then became Lecturer at Grenoble Institut National Polytechnique, then finally Professor at Joseph Fourier University in Grenoble in 1989. His scientific interest rests in the micro-mechanical behavior of heterogeneous materials and interfaces, covering physical, chemical and structural aspects. He retired in 2009, but still keeps up an interest in his original scientific field and some scientific activity (textbook writing, textbook translation from English to French).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePublication Date: \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e20 August 2012\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePublisher: \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWiley\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eImprint: \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWiley-ISTE\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eISBN-13: \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e9781848213739\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFormat: \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eHardback\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePage Count: \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e320\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWeight (oz): \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e21.7\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e","brand":"Wiley","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44378801864844,"sku":"9781848213739","price":161.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0710\/9545\/1788\/files\/9781848213739.jpg?v=1780146181","url":"https:\/\/lateknightbooks.com\/products\/9781848213739","provider":"Late Knight Books and Services, LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
