The Wilmington Shipyard: Welding a Fleet for Victory in World War II
ISBN: 1596292105 Binding: Paperback Edition: Author(s): Ralph Lee Scott Publisher: The History Press Number of Pages: 160
As the nation launched into World War II the North Carolina Shipbuilding Corporation began building the vessels to ensure victory Although the brief life of the North Carolina Shipbuilding Company was surrounded by controversy including location and labor disputes some 243 Liberty- and Victory-class ships were built in Wilmington between 1942 and 1946 to bolster the United States Navy's World War II fleet Author Ralph Lee Scott examines the impact of this shipyard and its effect on Wilmington's transformation from a sleepy post-Depression coastal town into a major state industrial center Workers from around the Southeast pitched in and pulled together to build the ships that would help win the largest global conflict of the twentieth century

An advanced yet accessible treatment of the welding process and its underlying science
Despite the critically important role welding plays in nearly every type of human endeavor most books on this process either focus on basic technical issues and leave the science out or vice versa In Principles of Welding industry expert and prolific technical speaker Robert W Messler Jr takes an integrated approach--presenting a comprehensive self-contained treatment of the welding process along with the underlying physics chemistry and metallurgy of weld formation
Promising to become the standard text and reference in the field this book provides an unprecedented broad coverage of the underlying physics and the mechanics of solidification--including peritectic and eutectic reactions--and emphasizes material continuity and bonding as a way to create a joint between materials of the same general class The author supplements the book with hundreds of tables and illustrations and correlates the science to welding practices in the real world
Principles of Welding departs from existing books with its clear unambiguous presentation which is easily grasped even by undergraduate students yet given at the advanced level required by experienced engineers
