  2. Vickers hardness test - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vickers_hardness_test

    The unit of hardness given by the test is known as the Vickers Pyramid Number (HV) or Diamond Pyramid Hardness (DPH). The hardness number can be converted into units of pascals, but should not be confused with pressure, which uses the same units. The hardness number is determined by the load over the surface area of the indentation and not the ...

  4. Brinell scale - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brinell_scale

    If Meyer's index is greater than 2.2, then the ratio increases. [1] The Brinell hardness is designated by the most commonly used test standards (ASTM E10-14 [2] and ISO 6506–1:2005) as HBW (H from hardness, B from brinell and W from the material of the indenter, tungsten (wolfram) carbide). In former standards HB or HBS were used to refer to ...

  5. Euler's critical load - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Euler's_critical_load

    Euler's critical load or Euler's buckling load is the compressive load at which a slender column will suddenly bend or buckle. It is given by the formula: [1] where. This formula was derived in 1744 by the Swiss mathematician Leonhard Euler. [2] The column will remain straight for loads less than the critical load.

  6. Ultimate tensile strength - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ultimate_tensile_strength

    Ultimate tensile strength (also called UTS, tensile strength, TS, ultimate strength or in notation) [1] is the maximum stress that a material can withstand while being stretched or pulled before breaking. In brittle materials, the ultimate tensile strength is close to the yield point, whereas in ductile materials, the ultimate tensile strength ...

  7. Maraging steel - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maraging_steel

    Ultimate tensile strength: typically 1.6–2.5 GPa (230–360 ksi). Grades exist up to 3.5 GPa (510 ksi) Elongation at break: up to 15%; K IC fracture toughness: up to 175 MPa·m 12; Young's modulus: 210 GPa (30 × 10 ^ 6 psi) [27] Shear modulus: 77 GPa (11.2 × 10 ^ 6 psi) Bulk modulus: 140 GPa (20 × 10 ^ 6 psi)

  8. Flexural strength - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flexural_strength

    Flexural strength, also known as modulus of rupture, or bend strength, or transverse rupture strength is a material property, defined as the stress in a material just before it yields in a flexure test. [1] The transverse bending test is most frequently employed, in which a specimen having either a circular or rectangular cross-section is bent ...

  9. Shear modulus - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shear_modulus

    Shear modulus. In materials science, shear modulus or modulus of rigidity, denoted by G, or sometimes S or μ, is a measure of the elastic shear stiffness of a material and is defined as the ratio of shear stress to the shear strain: [1] where. = shear strain. In engineering , elsewhere.
