Residual stress engineering: developing control, measurement and characterisation techniques

31st January 2013, Manchester Conference Centre

This event, being held by the IMechE, will cover measurement and calculation of residual stresses and their influence on structural integrity. Delegates can expect to gain knowledge of measurement by neutron diffraction methods, learn about different modelling techniques, understand the methods of stress relief cracking, obtain updates on these topics from experts on the state of the technology for structural integrity assessment, choose the perfect materials at the design stage, and make designs more tolerant to damage.
