BSSM Workshop: The Measurement of Residual Stress using Diffraction Methods

Tuesday 24th February 2009, Time: 10am to 4pm Room B4, Materials Science Centre, School of Materials, University of Manchester

Residual stress is one of the most common causes of catastrophic and unexpected failures in engineering components. Today, engineers are developing tools and strategies for managing detrimental residual stresses and for introducing beneficial ones across component scales ranging from microelectronics through to aero-engine assemblies For more information and to register / download a flyer please visit www.bssm.org/events
