Effect of Cold Work on the Tensile and Fatigue Performance of Aluminum Alloy 5754
2006
This article considers the effects of cold work on the tensile and fatigue properties of a non-heat-treatable aluminum alloy, namely, AA5754. Cold work up to 50% was introduced by cold rolling. The critical tensile strain for serration initiation was observed to increase with increasing cold work. The fatigue performance was also improved with increasing cold work. Annealing at 200 deg C for 1 h reduced both the critical strain as well as the fatigue performance. Finally, in experiments with drilled holes and punched holes, it was observed that punching improved the fatigue performance compared with drilling, which was attributed to cold work induced at the hole boundary by the punching operation.

Information Technology and Organizational Change in the British Census, 1801-1911
1996
The first British census was taken in 1801 and was processed by a handful of clerks in a tiny office. By the mid-1800s, the census had evolved into an elaborate Victorian data-processing operation involving over a hundred clerks, each of whom had a specialized information-processing role. In 1911 the census was mechanized and the routine data processing was taken over by punched-card machines.
This paper explores the changes in information technology within the census over a period of more than a century, and the resulting organizational changes. A contrast is drawn with the U.S. census—which mechanized in 1890—on the adoption of new technology.
