Proceedings of the 7th International Conference on Fracture Fatigue and Wear

These proceedings gather a selection of peer-reviewed papers presented at the 7th International Conference on Fracture Fatigue and Wear (FFW 2018), held at Ghent University, Belgium on 9-10 July 2018.

The contributions, prepared by international scientists and engineers, cover the latest advances in and innovative applications of fracture mechanics, fatigue of materials, tribology and wear of materials.

The book is intended for academics, including graduate students and researchers, as well as industrial practitioners working in the areas of fracture fatigue and wear.
