| Title | Referee's report by Cecil Henry Desch, on a paper 'Internal stress created by plastic flow in mild steel, and stress-strain curves for the atomic lattice of higher carbon steels' by S L Smith and W A Wood |
| Date | [1943] |
| Description | Sectional Committee: Physics
Recommended for publication in the 'Proceedings of the Royal Society of London'. Communicated by Charles Galton Darwin. Has no modifications to suggest. Criticises how the non-homogeneous character of the demformation has been overlooked, 'but this is an old criticism, and is best considered in a discussion'. Refers to 1903 theory of George Thomas Beilby, which was rejected by British and German physicists, but accepted by a few American metallurgists, and the referee.
Contains extra question - 'Is there any information contained in the paper which likely to be of value to the enemy?' Referee replies no.
