This ebook presents Fractography and Failure Analysis (PDF) at a level that is accessible for non-expert readers, without losing scientific rigor. It offers a comprehensive description of fracture surfaces in engineering materials, with an emphasis on metals, and of the methodology for the observation of fracture surfaces. It also discusses in detail the main fracture mechanisms and their corresponding fracture surfaces, including ductile, brittle, fatigue, and environmental fractures. The last chapter is dedicated to the use of fractography in determining the causes of component failure.
