Residual Stresses III - Science and technology two volume set (Hardcover)

This volume consists of papers presented at the Third International Conference on Residual Stresses held in Tokushima, Japan, 23-26 July 1991. Approximately 330 participants from 26 countries discussed residual stresses on various aspects and 249 papers were presented. This series of conferences deals with all angles of residual and internal stresses. The conference also commemorated the 40th anniversary of the Society of Materials Science, Japan. The range of materials at the conference covered eleven organized sessions. Residual stresses have been known for a long time, but it is still highly researched in the engineering field because new problems challenge us every year. Problems arise not only in traditional materials for machinery, but also in new materials such as advanced composites and biomaterials. No matter how or what kind of materials we process, residual stresses always exist in products. Their reliability depends on residual stresses, and because new materials are continuously being developed, residual stresses will continue to challenge us. The papers presented at the conference include all aspects of internal and residual stresses in composites ceramics, thin films
