Creep
Inelasticity andPlasticity Problems
Frictionless and Frictional Cohesive Crack Propagation
Dynamic Crack Propagation
2) Methodology:
Failure analysis
Risk analysis
Probabilistic fracture mechanics
Repair technique
3) Application:
Composite materials
Concrete (and masonry) structures
Fracture of coupled systems
Fracture in micro structures
