  2. Vickers hardness test - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vickers_hardness_test

    In the above equation, F could be in N and d in mm, giving HV in the SI unit of MPa. To calculate Vickers hardness number (VHN) using SI units one needs to convert the force applied from newtons to kilogram-force by dividing by 9.806 65 (standard gravity). This leads to the following equation: [4]

    > 10 MPa > 1,500 psi Pressure exerted by a 45 kg person wearing stiletto heels when a heel hits the floor [69] 15.5 Mpa 2,250 psi Primary coolant loop of a pressurized water reactor: 20 MPa 2,900 psi Typical pressure used for hydrogenolysis reactions [70] 21 MPa 3,000 psi Pressure of a typical aluminium scuba tank of pressurized air (210 bar ...

  4. Ultimate tensile strength - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ultimate_tensile_strength

    The ultimate tensile strength of a material is an intensive property; therefore its value does not depend on the size of the test specimen.However, depending on the material, it may be dependent on other factors, such as the preparation of the specimen, the presence or otherwise of surface defects, and the temperature of the test environment and material.

    Flux F through a surface, dS is the differential vector area element, n is the unit normal to the surface. Left: No flux passes in the surface, the maximum amount flows normal to the surface. Right: The reduction in flux passing through a surface can be visualized by reduction in F or d S equivalently (resolved into components , θ is angle to ...

  6. Huber's equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Huber's_equation

    Huber's equation, first derived by a Polish engineer Tytus Maksymilian Huber, is a basic formula in elastic material tension calculations, an equivalent of the equation of state, but applying to solids. In most simple expression and commonly in use it looks like this: [1]

  7. Pascal (unit) - Wikipedia

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

    The pascal (symbol: Pa) is the unit of pressure in the International System of Units (SI). It is also used to quantify internal pressure, stress, Young's modulus, and ultimate tensile strength. The unit, named after Blaise Pascal, is an SI coherent derived unit defined as one newton per square metre (N/m 2). [1]

  8. Knoop hardness test - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Knoop_hardness_test

    The SI unit, pascal, is sometimes used instead: 1 kg f ⋅mm −2 = 9.80665 MPa. The test was developed by Frederick Knoop [ 2 ] and colleagues at the National Bureau of Standards (now NIST ) of the United States in 1939, and is defined by the ASTM E384 standard.

  9. Barlow's formula - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Barlow's_formula

    Barlow's formula (called "Kesselformel" [1] in German) relates the internal pressure that a pipe [2] can withstand to its dimensions and the strength of its material. This approximate formula is named after Peter Barlow , an English mathematician .
