  2. Vickers hardness test - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vickers_hardness_test

    To convert the Vickers hardness number to SI units the hardness number in kilograms-force per square millimeter (kgf/mm 2) has to be multiplied with the standard gravity, , to get the hardness in MPa (N/mm 2) and furthermore divided by 1000 to get the hardness in GPa.

  3. Orders of magnitude (pressure) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Orders_of_magnitude_(pressure)

    Orders of magnitude (pressure) This is a tabulated listing of the orders of magnitude in relation to pressure expressed in pascals. psi values, prefixed with + and -, denote values relative to Earth's sea level standard atmospheric pressure (psig); otherwise, psia is assumed. Magnitude. Pressure. lbf/in 2 or dB.

    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 1 ⁄ 2; Young's modulus: 210 GPa (30 × 10 ^ 6 psi) [26] Shear modulus: 77 GPa (11.2 × 10 ^ 6 psi) Bulk modulus: 140 GPa (20 × 10 ^ 6 psi)

  5. 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 ...

  6. Pascal (unit) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pascal_(unit)

    The unit, named after Blaise Pascal, is an SI coherent derived unit defined as one newton per square metre (N/m 2). [1] It is also equivalent to 10 barye (10 Ba) in the CGS system. Common multiple units of the pascal are the hectopascal (1 hPa = 100 Pa), which is equal to one millibar , and the kilopascal (1 kPa = 1000 Pa), which is equal to ...

  7. Ultimate tensile strength - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ultimate_tensile_strength

    ^b Multiwalled carbon nanotubes have the highest tensile strength of any material yet measured, with one measurement of 63 GPa, still well below one theoretical value of 300 GPa. [38] The first nanotube ropes (20 mm in length) whose tensile strength was published (in 2000) had a strength of 3.6 GPa. [39]

  8. 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.

  9. Young's modulus - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Young's_modulus

    Young's modulus is defined as the ratio of the stress (force per unit area) applied to the object and the resulting axial strain (displacement or deformation) in the linear elastic region of the material. Although Young's modulus is named after the 19th-century British scientist Thomas Young, the concept was developed in 1727 by Leonhard Euler.
