We present some important theoretical and experimental results obtained in the field of fracture mechanics of materials and durability of structural elements. The main foundations (concepts) of the fracture mechanics and strength of cracked elastoplastic bodies are formulated and some urgent problems of advanced studies in this field of science of materials and their strength are posed. Some problems of the fatigue fracture and durability of metals operating in working media are also investigated.
