Constance Tipper- Her major research contribution was to discover why WW II Liberty Ships were breaking in two. The #LibertyShips in the North Atlantic were subjected to such low temperatures that they would have been susceptible to brittle failure. https
@ShiQingWang4 BDT has received much attention since WWII, and has been part of the genesis legend of fracture mechanics. https://t.co/GKue1cOnMS

A WWII science story that is certainly movie-worthy but I only recently learned about is that of Cambridge professor Constance Tipper solving the Liberty Ship Problem: https://t.co/zEI3P2ZAXI

Hat tip to the always informative Prof. Suo (https://t.co/uvQLT5LAJr) for inspiring me to learn about this very important and perhaps unfairly under-appreciated figure. A more detailed profile of Tipper was previously done by Prof. Paul Coxon of Cambridge:

In the story of Liberty ships, Constance Tipper stood out. She made a central discovery: a notched steel plate used by the ships underwent a ductile-to-brittle transition as temperature dropped. She lived to 101. Her own life is a story. https://t.co/ye
Prepping my lecture for the @EastCarolina Intro to Materials students for tomorrow and came across this lovely piece about Constance Tipper, which I will use in my slides about ductile-brittle transitions and Liberty ships! https://t.co/XcBnGQaNRB

@FindingAda @StuartGHiggins @paulcoxon The JOM article I think was the best I've seen. Striking how much CF-T did and how long that took to be recognised https://t.co/SCoEl8RmmO
