A researcher who, with Melbourne L. Winton, investigated dimensional instability during thermal cycling of uranium. Repeated temperature changes could produce permanent distortion rather than merely reversible thermal expansion. Their report linked a reactor-engineering problem with the response of a textured crystalline metal, using controlled cycling to explore when damaging changes developed.[ref]
