Abstract

Fracture is a problem which troubles structural engineers for centuries. People have been trying to answer when, where, and why the structures fail. Scientists have been trying to investigate the fracture mechanisms of complex components, e.g., the weldment, as the fracture behaviour of weldments influences the crack growth in structures which affects the lifetime and safety of the components.
