Handbook of Materials Failure Analysis
With Case Studies from the Textile Industries

Handbook of Materials Failure Analysis: With Case Studies from the Textile Industries examines the reasons materials fail in certain situations, including material defects and mechanical failure as a result of various causes. The book begins with a general overview of materials failure analysis and its importance, and then logically proceeds from a discussion of the failure analysis process, types of failure analysis, specific tools and techniques, and analysis of materials failure from various causes. The book covers the most common types of materials failure analysis and possible solutions.

Failure can occur for several reasons: materials defects-related failure

Part I: Basics and Introduction to Failure Analysis 1. Materials Failure Analysis: An overview of relative industry 2. Principles of Failure Analysis (how a failure analysis is performed) 3. Classifications and types of Materials Failure Analysis 4. Tools and Techniques in Failure Analysis 5. Basics of Materials Failure analysis due to mechanical effects

Part II: Failure Due to first reason 6. Case 1 7. Case 2 8. Case 3 9. Case 4

Part III: Failure Due to second reason 10. Case 1 11. Case 2 12. Case 3 13. Case 4
