Hi All,

Can you please suggest me some good books or online links to understand the theory/applications of Molecular modelling. I am in Mechanical Engg. Dept. and new to this subject. Currently I have started reading the book by Andrew R. Leach (Molecular Modelling principles and applications)

conference

Fatigue and Fracture of engineering materials

Scope of Symposium

It is widely accepted that fatigue is the most common failure mode of structural components. Losses due

to fatigue failures annually are over several millions to billions of dollars. Apart from these economic

losses, fatigue failures are also responsible for causing major safety concerns due to the rapid and often

undetectable nature of the final components’ fracture. This symposium will bring together researchers
