Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Economic Effects of Fracture in the United States, Vol. 2: A Report to Nbs by Battelle Columbus Laboratories An additional Objective of this study was to estimate the impacts of future research. This World iv-the only part of the study in which a Simple summation was employed in place of a full model-represents the potential reductions in costs that could be realized through the conduct of research and the applications of the findings therefrom. It is important to note that Of the total costs of fracture given above, approximately 29 percent could be reduced through the widespread use Of presently available technology, that is, through education and technology transfer. An additional 24 percent may be reducible through research and development in four broad areas: (1) understanding basic materials properties and the mechanisms of material failure; (2) improving our knowledge and application Of processing techniques; (3) Specialized fracture-prevention design and related computational efficiency and accuracy; and (4) support areas related to inspection, testing, maintenance, and reliability control. The total cost of fracture billion) is percent of the Gross National Product for full employment 1978. If we assume no great change in the relative size of these costs in today's economy- with a gnp of approximately billion-current (1982) costs Of fracture are running at a level of about $132 billion per year. Two major factors deserve special attention at this point: (1) the magnitude Of the costs associated with accident-related events; and (2) the basically conservative nature of the i/o model. The total resource and imputed costs which result from accidents and other Similar events amount to slightly less than $2 billion. This is considerably smaller than the $34 billion estimated by the National Safety Council as being the cost of automo bile accidents alone in 1978. However, it must be emphasized that the total events cost defined here account only for those events which are caused by fracture; even within that limiting definition, we exclude from the scope any fractures that are the result of acts Of violence or vandalism, operations beyond design, natural disasters of magnitude greater than that expected in original design; and similar causes. We have included only those events which could be associated with the types of causes that conceivably can be addressed through efforts of those organizations that are concerned directly or indirectly with fracture technology.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Economic Effects of Fracture in the United States, Vol. 1: A Synopsis of the September 30, 1982 Report to Nbs by Battelle Columbus Laboratories The costs are primarily associated with the transportation and construction industries: motor vehicles, aircraft, and the building of homes and non-residential construction. Metal structures contributed substantially larger costs than non-metal structures. A greater percentage of these costs were expended on fracture prevention than on fracture occurrence. The study concluded that substantial material, transportation, and capital investment costs could be saved if technology transfer, combined with research and development, succeeded in reducing the factors of uncertainty related to structural design. Equally safe or safer structures could be produced with substantial cost savings in material, transportation, and capital investment. This could be done by reducing the uncertainty currently related to structural design through better predictions of structural performance from materials properties, better process and quality control and in-service flaw monitoring, and less materials variability.
