“…The dc response, as measured by the SQUID and plotted in figure 5(a), is an almost dipole-like response, with the actual component observed dependent on whether the sample is scanned with the horizontal or vertical orientation. Colleagues at Los Alamos have shown from previous studies [8] that weld quality could be inferred from acoustic emission data during the fabrication stage allied to a destructive metallographic analysis to examine the grain microstructure. It was our aim to show that nondestructive, SQUID-based data can also be used as an indicator of weld quality.…”

“…These same samples have been sectioned across the weld interface and then mechanically polished prior to being electrolytically etched in 10% oxalic acid at 3 V for 30-45 s [8]. The bond integrity was determined by visually comparing a micrograph of the weld interface with those of welds that are known to be acceptable or unacceptable.…”

“…The results for both frequencies follow a very similar trend which unfortunately does not correspond to any trend in the expected responses. The 17 samples include welds that are expected to be cold (11-13), hot (8)(9)(10) or optimal (4-7) and one would expect there to be some variation in the SQUID response depending on which particular category the weld fell into. Welds 1-3 were fabricated in a different gas environment from all the other welds, while welds 14 and 15 were fabricated with oil inside the tubes during the welding process and samples 16 and 17 used stainless steel tubes that had been oxidized prior to the welding.…”

To contain high-pressure gases inside a pressure vessel a seal is often made in a thin-walled tube, known as the stem tube, that connects the gas reservoir and the vessel. This seal can be achieved through the use of a resistance pinch weld that forms with only a limited amount of melting occurring. The lack of melting makes applying traditional post-weld nondestructive evaluation (NDE) techniques extremely difficult. The welds of interest here are made from 304L stainless steel (typically 3.8 mm diameter and 38 mm long) and have a non-uniform geometry that does not inherently lend itself to either eddy current or static field SQUID-based measurement techniques. We perform these NDE measurements with both the sample and the SQUID located inside local electromagnetic shielding. SQUID data are presented as individual time series traces for a set of welds that were fabricated using a broad range of fabrication parameters, and a comparison is made between the SQUID-based results and the known parameters. With the limited spatial resolution offered by our present SQUID system, it is not clear if weld quality can be evaluated from purely SQUID-based results.

Urban civic pride and the new localism

Civic pride relates to how places promote and defend local identity and autonomy. It is often championed as a key value and aspiration of local government. This paper argues that civic pride has been under-examined in geography, and in particular the emotional meanings of pride need to be better understood. In response, I present an emotional analysis of civic pride and discuss its role in British cities, particularly in the context of urban regeneration and the UK's new localism agenda. In the latter part of the paper I provide a case study of Nottingham in England, where I employ a discourse analysis of recent urban policy and local media to examine how civic pride is being mobilised and contested in the city. Examining civic pride is important because it shapes and reflects the political values that local governments stand for and provides a basis for thinking about how emotions are used strategically (and problematically) in urban policy. This paper complements and challenges existing literature on cities by showing how civic pride shapes, but also obscures, the ideological politics of local government and how, as geographers, we might consider more seriously the ways forms of power, identity and inequality are reproduced and contested through emotions such as pride.
