International Journal of Fracture

http://www.springerlink.com/content/100274/

The International Journal of Fracture is an outlet for original analytical,
numerical and experimental contributions which provide improved
understanding of the mechanisms of micro and macro fracture in all
materials, and their engineering implications.

The Journal is pleased to receive papers from engineers and scientists
working in various aspects of fracture. Contributions emphasizing empirical
correlations, unanalyzed experimental results or routine numerical
computations, while representing important necessary aspects of certain
fatigue, strength, and fracture analyses, will normally be discouraged;
occasional review papers in these as well as other areas are welcomed.
Innovative and in-depth engineering applications of fracture theory are also
encouraged.

In addition, the Journal welcomes, for rapid publication, concise Letters in
Fracture and Micromechanics which serve the Journal's Objective. Letters
include: Brief presentation of a new idea, concept or method; new
experimental observations or methods of significance; short notes of quality
that do not amount to full length papers; discussion of previously published
work in the Journal, and Letters Errata.

Subscribers have access to full-text articles in PDF format.
