Failure analysis of engineering materials
Brooks, Charlie R., 1931-New York : McGraw-Hill, c2002."Very valuable for solving, correcting, and avoiding critical material failure problems ...well organized and presented." - Charles A. Harper, president of Technology Seminars, Inc., and author and editor of numerous technical books, including the "Electronic Packaging and Interconnection Handbook". It expertly analzes failures in common materials. Perfect for engineers, "Failure Analysis of Engineering Materials" is the best tool for expert investigation and analysis of component failures. This is the premier one-stop reference for material failure information. It is designed-to-be-used introduction to principals and practices. It is ideal for failure inquiries involving metals, ceramics, plastics, composites, and electronic materials. It has practical, hands-on help with selecting and justifying analytic methods. It includes: 500 illustrations; pinpoints fracture type with comparative fractographs; and can be used as expert examples in reports.

Failure analysis in engineering applications
Nishida, S. (Shin-Ichi)Oxford ; Boston : Butterworth-Heinemann, 1992.Published collections of case studies of engineering and industrial failures are scarce resulting in very few books being available on this topic despite their obvious value to the understanding of the reasons for failure, and in the prevention of future failures. The purpose of this book is to fill the gap in the literature on this subject. The approach adopted is a generic one applicable to non-ferrous metals and plastics in addition to steels. The book is based on 40 typical failures.

Failure analysis of engineering structures : methodology and case histories
Materials Park, OH : ASM International, 2005.Printbegrænsninger: Der kan printes 10 sider ad gangen og max. 40 sider pr. session.Failure analysts, practicing engineers, and students of engineering will find useful guidance and detailed examples in this reference work on the challenging and complex task of investigating service failures and accidents. Based on over four decades of fieldwork by the Failure Analysis and Accident Investigation Group at the National Aerospace Laboratories (Bangalore, India), chapters in the book cover common causes of failures with numerous examples, methodology of failure analysis including some advanced techniques, various mechanisms of failures and characteristic macroscopic and microscopic features that provide significant clues to their causes. The authors also provide exemplary coverage on the detection and identification of damage from explosive sabotage. A separate section with more than 50 case studies of service failures also provides valuable lessons for future designers, manufacturers, users, and maintenance personnel.
