  2. Spring steel - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spring_steel

    Spring steel is a name given to a wide range of steels [1] used in the manufacture of different products, including swords, saw blades, springs and many more. These steels are generally low-alloy manganese , medium-carbon steel or high-carbon steel with a very high yield strength .

  3. Spring Back Compensation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spring_Back_Compensation

    Spring back compensation is used in metal forming to ensure that the final shape assumed by a piece of metal after being removed from a forming tool is the shape desired. Typically, when metal is being formed at room temperature, it will undergo both plastic and elastic deformation .

  4. Deformation (engineering) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Deformation_(engineering)

    A popular misconception is that all materials that bend are "weak" and those that do not are "strong". In reality, many materials that undergo large elastic and plastic deformations, such as steel, are able to absorb stresses that would cause brittle materials, such as glass, with minimal plastic deformation ranges, to break. [7]

  5. Bone (corsetry) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bone_(corsetry)

    Since the turn of the 20th century, steel boning was the standard for a high quality corset, coming in two different types: flat spring steel and spiral steel. While spring steel is most preferred for being thin and flexible, it only has the ability to bend in a single direction. Spiral steel is able to bend both horizontally and vertically ...

  6. Steel grades - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Steel_grades

    In addition to the descriptive steel grade naming system indicated above, within EN 10027-2 is defined a system for creating unique steel grade numbers. While less descriptive and intuitive than the grand names they are easier to tabulate and use in data processing applications.

  7. Constant-force spring - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Constant-force_spring

    An ideal constant-force spring is a spring for which the force it exerts over its range of motion is a constant, that is, it does not obey Hooke's law.In reality, "constant-force springs" do not provide a truly constant force and are constructed from materials that do obey Hooke's law.

  8. Shock-resisting steel - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shock-resisting_steel

    SVCM steel is a kind of shock-resisting steel. [5] SVCM steel is an alloy of carbon, silicon, chromium, magnesium, nickel, molybdenum and lead. [6] SVCM+ in addition is quenched and tempered achieving a high hardness (HRC 59). [6] SCVM+ has better torsional properties than chromium-vanadium steel (Cr-V). [7]

  9. Stress–strain curve - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stress–strain_curve

    In this region, the stress mainly increases as the material elongates, except that for some materials such as steel, there is a nearly flat region at the beginning. The stress of the flat region is defined as the lower yield point (LYP) and results from the formation and propagation of Lüders bands. Explicitly, heterogeneous plastic ...
