Ravichandran and Y. Murakami during December 6-11, 1998, at the Turtle Bay  Hilton, Oahu, Hawaii.  This book presents a state-of-the-art description of the mechanics, mechanisms and applications of small fatigue cracks by most of the world's leading experts in this field. Topics ranging from the mechanisms of crack initiation, small crack behavior in metallic, intermetallic, ceramic and composite materials, experimental measurement, mechanistic and theoretical models, to the role of small cracks in fretting fatigue and the application of small crack results to the aging aircraft and high-cycle fatigue problems, are covered.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cfont size=\"3\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eChapter headings and selected papers:\u003c\/b\u003e Preface. \u003cb\u003eNucleation of Small Cracks and Stage I Growth.\u003c\/b\u003e A theory of fracture with a polygonal shape crack (T.
