Additional information
This was the first application of the contour method of stress measurement to determine the complete stress tensor in a sample through the application of multiple cuts. Our research on the contour method underpins a series of current research grants from Rolls-Royce and Airbus. These results were part of an EPSRC project in collaboration with Airbus and Alcoa looking at candidate technologies for welded primary structure in aircraft. The contour method has also become a key research tool in our nuclear power generation research.
