Overview
In recent decades prevention of failure has been one of the main objectives in engineering research as unexpected structural failures may occur and even lead to detrimental effects. On the other side the growing complexity of engineering components and technology advancements and the increased sensitivity of the society for safe engineering products represent new challenges for engineering against failure. To cope with these challenges necessitates engagement of a large pool of expertise. Disciplines like materials science, structural engineering, reliability engineering, physics, mathematics and even economics need to interact to design efficient and safe engineering structures. Today’s engineering requires for multi-disciplinary and multi-scale approach in terms of both, size and time.
The scope of this Special Issue is to attract interdisciplinary works dedicated to the design against, prevention as well as analysis of engineering failure. Works are expected to cover a number of different scientific and technological areas including materials science, engineering, physics, mathematics etc. as well as a variety of applications including Aeronautics, Automotive, Marine, Construction, Manufacturing, Bioengineering, Recycling, etc.
Authors are invited to contribute to this Special Issue with content aimed at the study of failure of engineering materials and components. More specifically, papers from the following topics are welcome:
• Novel engineering composites
• Bio-based engineering composites
• Recycling of structural composites
• Nanomaterials: technology, properties and modeling fracture behaviour
• Smart materials and structures
• Damage tolerant microstructures
• Damage tolerance of stiffened structures
• Structural integrity and structural health monitoring
• Fracture and fatigue of materials and structures
• Characterization of fractures
