No doubt many people have heard of the breaking in half of several merchant ships during the last war and since. During the war more than 5000 such ships were built; and about 1000 of these have had fractures of varying degrees of severity. The reasons for this brittle behavior of a ductile carbon steel----of which these ships were made--form the interesting subject matter of one of the fourteen papers comprising Fatigue and Fraaure of Metals. The result of a symposium on the latest developments in the fatigue and fracture of metals held in June 1950 at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, this book illustrates the importance of fatigue in many of our engineering fields. Not only is the problem of fatigue in ships discussed, but also in aircraft, in machinery and in metals in general. Although dealing at times with specific problems in industry, the major emphasis of the book is on the nature and theory of the brittle fracture of metals. Such well known authorities in the field as O.
