  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.

  3. 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.

  4. Ultimate tensile strength - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ultimate_tensile_strength

    Ultimate tensile strength (also called UTS, tensile strength, TS, ultimate strength or in notation) [1] is the maximum stress that a material can withstand while being stretched or pulled before breaking. In brittle materials, the ultimate tensile strength is close to the yield point, whereas in ductile materials, the ultimate tensile strength ...

  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. 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. P c r {\displaystyle P_ {cr}} , Euler's critical load (longitudinal compression load on column), E {\displaystyle E} , Young's modulus of the column material, I {\displaystyle I ...

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

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

    Chemical data page. 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 ...

  8. 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.

  9. Pound per square inch - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pound_per_square_inch

    The pound per square inch (abbreviation: psi) or, more accurately, pound-force per square inch (symbol: lbf/in2), [1] is a unit of measurement of pressure or of stress based on avoirdupois units. It is the pressure resulting from a force with magnitude of one pound-force applied to an area of one square inch. In SI units, 1 psi is approximately ...
