HENRY EYRING was fortunate in entering the arena of chemical physics at the time that quantum mechanics began impinging on the fundamental problems of chemistry.
Henry was born and raised as a Mormon and he remained a devoted follower of that faith throughout his life.
Henry's father was a successful cattle rancher and Henry was riding "as soon as my legs were long enough to straddle a horse." But the beginning of the Mexican revolution in 1910 destabilized the political situation to such an extent that 4,800 of the colonists migrated to El Paso, Texas, in mid-July 1912.

Henry Eyring's contributions to chemical reaction rate theory have led to a very general and powerful model for acceleration known as the Eyring Model.
If a chemical process (chemical reaction, diffusion, corrosion, migration, etc.) is causing degradation leading to failure, the Eyring model describes how the rate of degradation varies with stress or, equivalently, how time to failure varies with stress.
Note that the general Eyring model includes terms that have stress and temperature interactions (in other words, the effect of changing temperature varies, depending on the levels of other stresses).
