Whitechapel Lecture 1: John Campbell 'Good Founding, Our Duty Of Care' 

Thursday December 3rd
Professor John Campbell OBE
Good Founding - Our Duty of Care.
Recent research has revealed that metals cannot initiate failure by fracture. The initiation sites for fracture are introduced in generous quantities into our metals by our casting processes. However, it is not necessary to do this. New rules for founding, for castings production, are now available to make metals safe against failure by cracking. Helicopters need no longer fall from the sky because of mechanical failure. For the first time, the world has the possibility to achieve reliable metals; metals we can trust.
