OSTI ID:6893530

The present conference discusses topics in the failure analysis of metallic materials, metal-matrix composites (MMCs), environmental effects on metallics materials, the failure analysis of polymers and ceramics and of resin-based composites, case histories in metal-failure analysis, failure-mechanisms in resin-based composites, innovations in test methodologies, and failures in weldments. Attention is given to fatigue cracking in Al-Li alloys, flow and fracture in discontinuous MMCs with high ductility, the service failure of a 7049 T73 Al alloy aircraft forging, the fracture behavior of electronic ceramics, microscopy of composite delamination, a helicopter crew-seat failure analysis, cracking in marine composites, quantitative fractography, and the significance of repair welds in service failures.
