THE BATTALION * •
A&M to research high-strength materials
A&M’s Mechanics and Materi
als Research Center (MMRC) has
won a $50,000 contract to research
advanced high-strength materials.
The latest project teams TAMU
researchers with those from The
Aerojet Solid Propulsion Co. of
Sacramento, Calif. Objective of
the one-year study is development
of glass fiber-reinforced plastic
pressure vessels for use as rocket
cases.
Dr. Richard A. Schapery, cen
ter director and principal investi
gator, said the MMRC study is
to improve techniques used to
predict stresses and deflections
in the high-strength but flexible
plastic cases.
The center, which includes fac
ulty members from engineering
and the sciences, will study ma
terial behavior under the stresses
of rocket flight and develop a

computer code to enable rocket
companies to design cases which
are as light in weight as possible,
consistent with required strength,
Dr. Schapery reported.
He said anticipated accuracy
of the computer codes will allow
rocket companies to design, test
and compare new rocket cases
entirely within their computers,
thus eliminating the expensive
fabrication of prototypes of every
new design.
Assisting Dr. Schapery will be
Dr. J. E. Martinez, civil engineer
ing structural mechanics expert;
Scott Beckwith, a doctoral stu
dent, and Nick Conrad, master’s
candidate.
Dr. Schapery noted MMRC has
focused much of its efforts since
organization last year on advanc
ing studies in composites materi
als.
Combination of metal, rubber,
plastics and ceramics yield com
posites with greater strength-to-
weight ratios and environmentally
resistant characteristics not at
tainable before, he said.
“Emerging materials and me
chanics technology demand an in
terdisciplinary approach for so
lutions,” Dr. Schapery pointed
out. “It was the problem-solving
combination of expert knowledge
from several departments at TA
MU that led to the organization
of the MMRC.”
The professor of civil and aero
space engineering reported over
half of the research is funded by
the Navy, Air Force and NASA.
Curx-ent work at the center
includes analysis of submarine
hulls, characterization of graphite
fiber-reinforced composites, ultra-
high pressure transducer develop
ment, studies on corrosion of
metals and advancement of non
destructive testing methods.

Baseball is one of the few experiences of life in which you learn imme
diately and unquestionably whether you’re safe—or out.
In other pursuits we can go on for years thinking we’re safe when we’re
not.
Of course, in life as in baseball it is what a man attempts and decides
to do, and how well he fulfills his aim, that determines whether he’ll be
safe. And in life, too, each venture calls for determination and a knowledge
of the rules.
For many youngsters in our community the church is the sandlot of
life. In the church’s youth activities they find their training and experience
—for one day on the “diamond” of life they’ll be making decisions and pit
ting their strength against serious challenges, relying on the religious con
victions and moral principles they gained on the way up.
In weighing your child’s need of spiritual development remember this:
In life, each day doesn’t offer a new ball game!
