✦ Synopsis
A comparison of observations by different authors reveals that systematic differences exist between momentum fluxes measured directly, and momentum fluxes determined indirectly by the 'dissipation method'. This discrepancy is attributed to systematic errors due to the indirect determination of energy dissipation from the presumed inertial subrange spectrum of the horizontal wind component. The discrepancy increases with increasing 'degree of anisotropy', indicated by the ratio (vertical wind spectrum) : (horizontal wind spectrum) deviating from f.
The results support a value of 0.48 for Kolmogoroff's constant.

The crack compliance method is a destructive experimental method used for the estimation of residual stress profiles in thick metal plates. Simplifying assumptions, such as dimensional reduction, are generally used in applications of this method. The question of how the simplifying assumptions affec
