  2. Tantalum–tungsten alloys - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tantalum–tungsten_alloys

    The alloys of tantalum–tungsten have high corrosion resistance, and refractory properties. The crystalline structure of the material is body-centered cubic with a substitutional solid solution with atoms of tungsten. The alloy also has a high melting point and can reach high elastic modulus and high tensile strength. [3] Alloys. Hardness (HV)

  3. California bearing ratio - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/California_bearing_ratio

    The California Bearing Ratio ( CBR) is a measure of the strength of the subgrade of a road or other paved area, and of the materials used in its construction. The ratio is measured using a standardized penetration test first developed by the California Division of Highways for highway engineering. [1] Empirical tests measure the strength of the ...

  4. Distance modulus - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Distance_modulus

    For example, the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC) is at a distance modulus of 18.5, the Andromeda Galaxy's distance modulus is 24.4, and the galaxy NGC 4548 in the Virgo Cluster has a DM of 31.0. In the case of the LMC, this means that Supernova 1987A , with a peak apparent magnitude of 2.8, had an absolute magnitude of −15.7, which is low by ...

  5. Tensile testing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tensile_testing

    Tensile testing, also known as tension testing, [1] is a fundamental materials science and engineering test in which a sample is subjected to a controlled tension until failure. Properties that are directly measured via a tensile test are ultimate tensile strength, breaking strength, maximum elongation and reduction in area. [2]

  6. AMC straight-4 engine - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AMC_straight-4_engine

    The AMC straight-4 engine is a 2.5 L inline-four engine developed by American Motors Corporation (AMC) that was used in a variety of AMC, Jeep, and Dodge vehicles from 1984 through 2002. The 2.5 L I4 Jeep engine shared design elements and some internal components with the AMC 4.0 L I6 that was introduced for the 1987 model year.

  7. 2.5GBASE-T and 5GBASE-T - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2.5GBASE-T_and_5GBASE-T

    The 2.5GBASE-T and 5GBASE-T standards also serve as an interim solution for achieving lower-cost and lower power consumption multi-gigabit network speeds. As of Dec 2022, 10GBASE-T network equipment is still substantially more expensive than 1GBASE-T, 2.5GBASE-T, and 5GBASE-T network equipment. IEEE 802.3bz also supports power over Ethernet ...

  8. Titanium alloys - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Titanium_alloys

    contains 4.5% aluminium, 2% molybdenum, 1.6% vanadium, 0.5% iron, and 0.3% silicon. Grade 36 contains 45% niobium. Grade 37 contains 1.5% aluminium. Grade 38 contains 4% aluminium, 2.5% vanadium, and 1.5% iron. This grade was developed in the 1990s for use as an armor plating. The iron reduces the amount of Vanadium needed as a beta stabilizer.

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

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

    Elastic properties describe the reversible deformation ( elastic response) of a material to an applied stress. They are a subset of the material properties that 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.
