Continuum Theory of Cumulative Damage

Estimation of Mechanical Stability and Resistance of Microporous Materials Prepared by Pyrolysis

“…The approaches employed include * statistical mechanics and thermodynamics (9}11), * perturbation methods (12, 13), * interface and colloid theory (14,15), * phonon theory (16), and * cumulative damage theory (17). All of these methods can be used in an analytical or a numerical form.…”
