Conway and Sjodahl pioneered some of the new techniques they describe for analyzing the results of fatigue tests on materials, and include examples of many of their own tests for other materials scientists and engineers. After reviewing the general principles of fatigue and testing, they consider such topics as current mathematical models, the general hyperbola approach, mean stress and mean strain effects, and multiple heat analysis. Includes descriptions and listings of computer programs. Member price, $66.40. Annotation copyright Book News, Inc. Portland, Or.
