KEVIN  TINGLER'S   CONTRACT

                                  MSE 2094   97'   CLASS  PROJECT

SIMPLE COMPUTER PROGRAM

        * OBJECTIVE:  
           To  use resources to create a simple computer program to help students 
           in upcoming years to better understand fracture and the constituents 
           that make up a material's ability to undergo this process.

        *  RESOURCES: 
             1.    Mainly will be using  Callister  from MSE 2034/2044 and references from 
                   Newman Library  and my FORTRAN90 textbook for programming code.
             2.   From  Callister  will use equations:
                   a)    (8.6)   p.193  --  fracture toughness.
                   b)    (8.7) , (8.8) p.194 - plane strain  fracture toughness  and  its conditions.
                   c)    (8.9) , (8.10) p.196 - critical stress and max. flaw size.

        * DUTIES:
                   a)   Describe the differences between the equations.
                   b)   Use FORTRAN90 to develop a program to relate the equations.
                   c)   Keep the program simple for the upcoming freshmen to understand.
                   d)   Keep in contact with Visualization (Ty and Ben) to alert of any changes.      

        *  TOOLS:
                   a)   Visual aids such as images of each equation and a diagram or two 
                   b)   Use data from Table 8.1 p195 , Callister 
                   c)    Make program user friendly and be able to enter own data. 
                   d)    Do not make program too complex and comment often.  

        *  RESPONSIBILITIES:
                    To make and abide by this contract for the class project in MSE 2094 .

        *  GROUP: 
                     Pete Widas  -- History/Introduction
                     Jason Midkiff  -- Theory
                     Kevin Tingler  -- Simple Computer Program
