Abstract

Development of fracture mechanics and structural integrity in South East Europe has been presented and analysed. As the starting point, the Magister thesis of Prof. Stojan Sedmak, 48 years ago (1968), has been taken, followed by his Doctoral thesis and some of the most important achievements afterwards, including International Fracture Mechanics Summer Schools and USA-ExYu project “Weldment Fracture Mechanics”.
