What is Evolution of Structural Fracture Mechanics about?

- Early structures used brittle materials like bricks and stones arranged to carry loads through compression via techniques like arches and domes. - The advent of metals allowed for tension in structures but also introduced problems like unexpected brittle fracture, as evidenced by failures like the 1943 Liberty ships splitting in half due to cold temperatures. - Conventional design based only on strength does not consider fracture, while fracture mechanics design considers both material properties and c
