Fabrication and Processing Technology for Improved Crack Tolerant Properties of Stuctural Alloys: Current R&D Activities and Emergent Research Opportunities.

Abstract

As a 1978/79 action item, the Metal Panel (TP-1) of The Technical Cooperation Program (TTCP) Sub-Group P initiated a survey on current R&D activities and emergent research opportunities in processing and fabrication technology which show potential to improve the crack tolerant properties of structural alloys. This action was in response to repeated requests from the Sub-Group P for information and recommendations for Sub-Group activities in this general area. The U.S. contribution to this survey is documented in this report. (Author)
