About this ebook

Weapon Durability explores the science and technology behind how weapons withstand stress and avoid failure, bridging the gap between historical artifacts, modern tools, and fictional portrayals. It examines material science, fracture mechanics, and stress analysis, revealing why some materials are more suitable for weapon construction than others. For example, the book details how understanding a material's tensile strength is crucial for predicting its breaking point, and how finite element analysis can simulate the impact of forces on a weapon's structural integrity.

The book uniquely contrasts real-world data with exaggerated depictions of weapon durability in manga and other media, highlighting common misconceptions. Beginning with fundamental concepts in materials science, it progresses through material properties, stress mechanics, and finally, a critique of fictional representations.

Ultimately, Weapon Durability provides a scientific lens through which to view the capabilities and limitations of weapons, appealing to those interested in science, technology, and the cultural perception of weapons.
