  2. 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.

    1.6 HBS 10/100 Hardwood: 2.6–7.0 HBS 10/100 Lead: 5.0 HB (pure lead; alloyed lead typically can range from 5.0 HB to values in excess of 22.0 HB) Pure Aluminium: 15 HB Copper: 35 HB Hardened AW-6060 Aluminium: 75 HB Mild steel: 120 HB 18–8 (304) stainless steel annealed: 200 HB [3] Quenched and tempered steel wear plate: 400-700 HB Hardened ...

  4. Vickers hardness test - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vickers_hardness_test

    If HV is first expressed in N/mm 2 (MPa), or otherwise by converting from kgf/mm 2, then the tensile strength (in MPa) of the material can be approximated as σ u ≈ HV/ c, where c is a constant determined by yield strength, Poisson's ratio, work-hardening exponent and geometrical factors – usually ranging between 2 and 4. [9]

  5. 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 ...

  6. Elastic properties of the elements (data page) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Elastic_properties_of_the...

    Elastic propertiesdescribe the reversible deformation (elastic response) of a material to an applied stress. They are a subset of the material propertiesthat provide a quantitative description of the characteristics of a material, like its strength. Material properties are most often characterized by a set of numerical parameters called moduli.

  7. Young's modulus - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Young's_modulus

    Young's modulus (or Young modulus) is a mechanical property of solid materials that measures the tensile or compressive stiffness when the force is applied lengthwise. It is the modulus of elasticity for tension or axial compression. Young's modulus is defined as the ratio of the stress (force per unit area) applied to the object and the ...

  8. Atmospheric pressure - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Atmospheric_pressure

    The standard atmosphere (symbol: atm) is a unit of pressure defined as 101,325 Pa (1,013.25 hPa), which is equivalent to 1,013.25 millibars, [ 1 ] 760 mm Hg, 29.9212 inches Hg, or 14.696 psi. [ 2 ] The atm unit is roughly equivalent to the mean sea-level atmospheric pressure on Earth; that is, the Earth's atmospheric pressure at sea level is ...

  9. Tantalum carbide - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tantalum_carbide

    For example, TaC has a microhardness of 1,600–2,000 kg/mm 2 [18] (~9 Mohs) and an elastic modulus of 285 GPa, whereas the corresponding values for tantalum are 110 kg/mm 2 and 186 GPa. [ 19 ] Tantalum carbides have metallic electrical conductivity, both in terms of its magnitude and temperature dependence.
