How is this topic related to Environmental stress fracture? Are they describing the same thing? Dhollm (talk) 21:10, 22 August 2010 (UTC)Reply

I'm not completely sure, but ESC seems specific to plastics, while ESF seems to be a broad range of failure mechanisms in various materials. Wizard191 (talk) 16:14, 23 August 2010 (UTC)Reply
