This volume constitutes the proceedings of the 1983 Denver Conference on Applications of X-ray Analysis and is the 27th in the series. The conference was held jointly with the American Crystal lographic Association at Snowmass Resort, Colorado, from August 1 to 5, 1983. The papers appearing in this volume are only from pre dominantly Denver Conference (DC) sessions and from joint DC/ACA sessions. The early plans for holding a joint conference were initiated some three years ago by Q. C. Johnson of Lawrence Livermore Lab, J. B. Cohen of Northwestern University and P. K. Predecki of the University of Denver and were eventually brought to fruition by a jOint organizing committee consisting of: O. P. Anderson, Colorado State University (ACA) , D. E. Leyden, Colorado State University (DC), R. D. Witters, Colorado School of Mines (ACA) and P. K. Predecki (DC). We take this opportunity to thank the committee members and the early planners for their vision, ingenuity and hard work without which the conference would not have materialized. There was no plenary session in 1983, instead a number of special sessions were organized and chaired by various individuals.

Japan's Economy in War and Reconstruction was first published in 1949. Minnesota Archive Editions uses digital technology to make long-unavailable books once again accessible, and are published unaltered from the original University of Minnesota Press editions.
Dr. Cohen's substantial monograph is a carefully documented account of Japan's economic development from 1937 to 1949. It describes with much statistical evidence a remarkable experiment in planned industrial expansion prior to 1941, then continues with a survey of the war years, showing both the successes and failures of the planning, controlling, financing, and developing of Japan's war industries.
The last part of the book deals with the post-war problems of Japan from the war's end to the latter part of 1948—three years of occupation by the Allied Powers. Dr. Cohen discusses the three key economic factors: the basic reforms, the rapidly mounting inflation, and the slowly increasing, but still low level of production.
Dr. Cohen's first chapter is devoted to the careful planning of the years before the war. The next chapters discuss Japan's efforts to cope with the problems of munitions, food supply, and labor as the Allied war effort gradually wore her down. There are detailed studies of separate industries, shipping, and agriculture, and a discussion of the parts played respectively by air, sea, and land operations in the destruction of Japan's ability to wage successful war.
One of the main theses of these chapters is that the increasingly enveloping blockade of Japan shut off necessary industrial raw materials, and so brought Japanese war production to a virtual standstill before the main weight of the strategic air attack was delivered, and so made it impossible for Japan to continue the war.
The author's grim picture of inter-service quarrels and overlapping and inconsistent controls demonstrates that the Japanese army, navy, and civil service, in spite of their reputation for exact and strict organization, in practice failed to make good use of their unlimited powers.

Residual Stress: Measurement by Diffraction and Interpretation (Materials Research and Engineering)

As industries find that the market for their goods and services is often as closely connected to their quality as to their price, they become more interested in inspection and quality control. Non-destructive testing is one aspect of this topic; the subject of this book is a sub-field of this domain. The techniques for measuring residual stresses have a long history for a technological subject. Yet, in the last decade or so there has been renewed and vigorous interest, and, as a result of this, there has been considerable progress in our understanding and in our methods. It seemed a proper time to bring the new material together in an organized form suitable for a course or for self-teaching, hence this book. After an initial introduction to the qualitative ideas concerning the origin, role, and measurement of residual stresses, we follow with chapters on classical elasticity and the relatively new subject of microplasticity. These are primarily introductory or review in nature, and the reader will find it important to consider further the quoted references if he is to be involved in a continuing basis in this area. There follows a chapter on diffraction theory, and then we fuse these subjects with a chapter on diffraction techniques for measuring stresses and strains which at present is our most general tool for non-destructive evaluation in this area.

The atomic arrangements in condensed matter play an ever increasing role in many areas of science and technology - Materials Science and Engineering, Chemistry, Physics, Geology, Biology and Electrical, Civil, Mechanidtl and Chemical Engineering. Exciting discoveries in these fields in this century often stemmed from studies of these arrangements using diffraction: the structure and functions of DNA and other biological molecules, the configuration of polymer chains, the crystalline nature of metals and their imperfections, semiconductors and insulators, and -the links between their structures, their defects and material properties, and the interaction between materials and the environment. The broad, interdisciplinary character of diffraction studies makes them particularly exciting. With new tools such as the high-resolution electron microscope, new detectors, new techniques (such as EXAFS and glancing angle diffraction) and the new sources, the horizons of this field greatly expanded in the 1950's and 60's. Pulsed neutron sources and high intensity storage rings that came on the scene in the late 70's have opened up possibilities for new study to such vast horizons that it is hard to sit here writing this - there's so much to be done! Within the walls bounding each field of science or engineering, diffraction and structure is only one specialty. It is too easy for this topic to be developed in such a narrow way that sight is lost of the basic principles and broad possibilities.
