Mechanisms of diffusion-controlled brittle fracture: Progress report, April 1, 1988--March 31, 1989

AbstractRecent work on the phenomenon of diffusion-controlled quasi-static brittle fracture, known as dynamic embrittlement, is reviewed here with reference to sulfur-induced embrittlement of steel, tin-induced embrittlement of Cu-Sn alloys, and oxygen-induced embrittlement of copper-based and nickel-based alloys. The mechanisms of this generic form of intergranular brittle fracture are discussed.

Made In

I should like to give you a very condensed progress report on some spectrophotometric measurements of objective-prism spectra made in collaboration with H. Leicher at Bonn. The procedure used is almost completely automatic. The measurements are made with the help of a semi-automatic fully digitized registering microphotometer constructed by Hög-Hamburg. The reductions are carried out with the aid of a number of interconnected programmes written for the computer IBM 7090, beginning with the output of the photometer in the form of punched cards and ending with the printing-out of the final two-dimensional classifications.

Centre Region

In the course of several 21-cm observing programmes being carried out by the Leiden Observatory with the 25-meter telescope at Dwingeloo, a fairly complete, though inhomogeneous, survey of the regionl11= 0° to 66° at low galactic latitudes is becoming available. The essential data on this survey are presented in Table 1. Oort (1967) has given a preliminary report on the first and third investigations. The third is discussed briefly by Kerr in his introductory lecture on the galactic centre region (Paper 42). Burton (1966) has published provisional results of the fifth investigation, and I have discussed the sixth in Paper 19. All of the observations listed in the table have been completed, but we plan to extend investigation 3 to a much finer grid of positions.
