environment Defects in material Inadequacy in design Deficiency in construction or maintenance The strength of materials can be increased significantly. But sometimes this comes at the cost of reduced ductility of the material. For example, strength of steel can be increased by manipulating the microstructure. But this increases the brittleness of the material. Thus, a member can fail catastrophically due to crack formation and propagation, with little or no warning. A crack in a member…
iron as an alloy to create steel, which can be stronger up to 10x Most of the metals in Periodic Table have high malleability. This also includes iron, aluminium and…
AC 2.3: Explain the method of making titanium alloy and investigate how the composition and structure of metal alloys, polymers and poly-matrix composites influence the properties of the parent material. 1. Extraction process. 2. Melting process. 3. Storage process. Extraction of Titanium by Kroll process: First titanium ore Rutile (TiO2) is taken. Rutile is converted into titanium sponge by the following process: Titanium tetrachloride (TiCl4) – a colourless compound is obtained as a result…
Being the largest organ in your body, your skin works really hard to protect you against germs, pollution and extreme temperatures. It keeps you warm in winters and cool in summers. Your skin is also the first to show indications of an underlying problem in your body and the signs include dryness, oiliness, eczema, sores, moles, bruises, etc. And these are a few of the reasons why you should take care of your skin. Skin care is not just about using expensive skin care products. It entails…
Bending Strength requirement This is the first body requirement and its task is to support all the vehicle subsystems. The body in static is going to suffer bending due to the weight of the components, passengers, fuel and cargo, Figure 42. Similar to a beam simple supported, the very first requirement is that the structure bend sufficient to absorb the energy due to the weight, but has to withstand the weight under different loading scenarios. Figure 42: Body loading under a static scenario…

machining qualities and can be blanked, sheared and milled. Brass does not become brittle at low temperature like mild steel. Brass also has excellent thermal conductivity. Its electrical conductivity ranges from 23 to 44% that of pure copper. Copper is the main component, and brass is usually classified as a copper alloy Brass is stronger and harder than copper but not as strong or hard as steel Uses of brass metal Brass metal is used to make water fittings, screws, radiators, musical…
affected by the monstrous railroad companies lost their input on controlling them. The federal government also exercised its power to restore peace by halting strikes and riots with military might; the Homestead Strike at one of Andrew Carnegie’s steel plants ended with federal troops storming to the scene to put an end to the pandemonium. These displays of military strength were only intended to protect the large corporations. Targeted by the federal government, the factory workers who…
2. Calcium “Calcium is a metal, a bright shiny metal like all other metals. Calcium is not the white powdery substance most people believe.” Calcium is found in our body very abundantly and it is very important mineral, but its absorption, assimilation and utilization is very difficult in the cell. It is present in the bones as a main component and bones are rigid and hard due to it. We can get it from milk. Bones receives calcium and fills up with it at the age of 21 years. After it, there is…
