Corrosion failures of industrial components are commonly associated with welding. The reasons are many and varied. For example, welding may reduce the resistance to corrosion and environmentally assisted cracking by altering composition and microstructure, modifying mechanical properties, introducing residual stress, and creating physical defects. This book details the many forms of weld corrosion and the methods used to minimize weld corrosion. Chapters on specific alloys groups--carbon and alloy steels, stainless steels, high-nickel alloys, and nonferrous alloys--describe both general welding characteristics and the metallurgical factors that influence corrosion behavior. Corrosion problems associated with dissimilar metal weldments are also examined. Case histories document corrosion problems unique to specific industries including oil and gas, chemical processing, pulp and paper, and electric power. Special challenges caused by high-temperature environments are discussed. Commonly used methods to monitor weld corrosion and test methods for evaluation of intergranular, pitting, crevice, stress-corrosion cracking, and other forms of corrosion are also reviewed.
The 16th European Conference of Fracture (ECF16) was held in Greece, July, 2006. It focused on all aspects of structural integrity with the objective of improving the safety and performance of engineering structures, components, systems and their associated materials. Emphasis was given to the failure of nanostructured materials and nanostructures including micro- and nano-electromechanical systems (MEMS and NEMS).

"El autor escribe a la manera de los antiguos, para disfrutar de la no-inmediatez del ser amado, para anteponer el camino al destino. La musa también es mujer, claro, y palpita y por eso en estos cuentos hay sexo, locura y fe". Antonio Fraguas Garrido, periodista Es una breve colección de cuentos que, aunque tienen temáticas variadas, respiran un aire común, reconocible. Hablan de filosofía, la vida moderna, el amor y el sexo, el arte... Hay cuentos inspirados en Roma o Praga, en los clásicos del canon occidental, hay realismo mágico, surrealismo, metafísica, historia de la ciencia, arte, estética y amor. El libro sigue la máxima de Horacio: "enseñar deleitando".
Fifteen papers from a symposium held in Sparks, Nev., April 1988. They cover: low and high cycle fatigue, fatigue crack growth, corrosion fatigue, fracture toughness testing, and wide-plate testing. Annotation copyright Book News, Inc. Portland, Or.

Key articles from over 10 separate ASM publications are brought together as a practical reference on weld integrity crack prevention. This book thoroughly covers the essentials of weld solidification and cracking, weldability and material selection, process control and heat treatment, failure analysis, and fatigue and fracture mechanics weldments. Contents also include an appendix for quick reference of tabular data on weldability of alloys, process selection, recommended interpass and heat treatment temperatures, and qualification codes and standards.
This textbook for courses on function data analysis and shape data analysis describes how to define, compare, and mathematically represent shapes, with a focus on statistical modeling and inference. It is aimed at graduate students in analysis in statistics, engineering, applied mathematics, neuroscience, biology, bioinformatics, and other related areas. The interdisciplinary nature of the broad range of ideas covered—from introductory theory to algorithmic implementations and some statistical case studies—is meant to familiarize graduate students with an array of tools that are relevant in developing computational solutions for shape and related analyses. These tools, gleaned from geome...
