5. Program of discipline
Description of academic discipline, its goals, subject of study and learning outcomes
Fracture mechanics is the field of mechanics concerned with the study of the propagation of cracks in materials. It uses methods of analytical solid mechanics to calculate the driving force on a crack and those of experimental solid mechanics to characterize the material's resistance to fracture. In modern materials science, FM is an important tool used to improve the performance of mechanical components.
