The International Symposium "Local Strain and Temperature Measurements in NonUniform Fields at Elevated Temperatures", held at the Technical University Berlin (TUB), Berlin, Germany, on March 14 - 15, 1996, was jointly organized by the High Temperature Mechanical Testing Committee (HTMTC) and by the Federal Institute for Materials Research and Testing (BAM), Berlin, in cooperation with the German Association of Materials Research and Testing (DVM).
The symposium was devoted to precision strain and temperature measurements in nonuniform fields encountered in well-controlled laborarory testpieces and in highly complex loading situations typical of those encountered in operating engineering components. Measurement techniques contribute to all areas of experimental mechanics research and play a critical role in the type of information which can be determined on material response, defects and residual stresses. All of these parameters being crucial to the accurate prediction and interpretation of failures at both the material and at the engineering component levels.
