ABSTRACT THESE papers, and the discussions based upon them., represent a comprehensive survey of the major aspects of origin, control, measurement and effects of internal stresses.
Engineering, physical and X-ray methods of measurement are reviewed and ultrasonic methods suggested. Papers on the classification of stresses and of tessellated stresses are succeeded by
reviews of the origin of stresses in copper alloys (leading to stress-corrosion cracking), steel castings and electro-deposited metals. Specific examples are turbine rotors, beams and
glassware. Reports are given of recent work on welding stresses, and stresses caused by frictional sliding. A method for estimating macro-stresses in large masses of steel cooled from the
austenitic region is described. Symposium on Internal Stresses in Metals and Alloys Organised by the Institute of Metals in association with the Faraday Society, the Institute of Physics,
the Institution of Mechanical Engineers, the Iron and Steel Institute, the Physical Society and the Royal Aeronautical Society, and held in London on Wednesday and Thursday, 15th and 16th
October, 1947. Pp. viii + 486 + 58 plates. (London: Institute of Metals, 1948.) 42_s_. net. Access through your institution Buy or subscribe This is a preview of subscription content, access
