Linear elastic fracture mechanics

Submitted by Zhigang Suo on

These notes were initially written when I taught fracture mechanics in spring 2010.  The title of the notes was then "toughness".  In revising the notes for the class in 2014, I have changed the title of the notes to "Linear elastic fracture mechanics".

You can access all notes for the course on fracture mechanics
