Full Description
It is important for each generation of engineers and scientists to convey its accumulated knowledge to the next and, for that matter, leave it organized for the use of posterity. It is all the more important today because with only modest budgets for testing, any acquisition of new data must be for well-defined objectives and based on sound planning and proven methods. The authors of WRC Bulletin 539 Conway, Stentz and Berling were acknowledged by their peers as masters of test methods and instrumentation for elevated temperature fatigue testing as well as methodical collectors and analysts of data. Their Compendium of Fatigue, Tensile and Relaxation Behavior of Stainless Steels is a valuable resource for current and future designers and materials engineers. It provides insight into the development and refinement of test methods as well as an extraordinary, comprehensive body of data on cyclic and elevated temperature mechanical properties including strain hardening, fatigue and relaxation.The Compendium is valuable for engineers today and will be for those in the future because the materials covered, a variety of stainless steels, continue to be popular choices for corrosion and elevated-temperature service. Additionally, the current generation of engineers relies on constitutive equations for the purpose of finite element analysis. The work of Conway, Stentz and Berling was ahead of its time. It provides what is needed today and more. It offers a foundation of knowledge of materials properties and useful equations for the non-specialist in materials behavior as well as the specialist. WRC Bulletin 539 should be essential reading for engineering students so they may understand the physical basis for the properties they will be using for design.
We are very appreciative of the cooperation of Mar-Test Inc. and, in particular, Bob Neugebauer, Executive Vice President of Mar-Test Inc. for their cooperation in enabling WRC to publish this important collection.
