  2. Arc elasticity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arc_elasticity

    The y arc elasticity of x is defined as: , = % % where the percentage change in going from point 1 to point 2 is usually calculated relative to the midpoint: % = (+) /; % = (+) /. The use of the midpoint arc elasticity formula (with the midpoint used for the base of the change, rather than the initial point (x 1, y 1) which is used in almost all other contexts for calculating percentages) was ...

  3. Spring (device) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spring_(device)

    Resistance of the coil to load varies during compression [8] Variable stiffness spring Resistance of the coil to load can be dynamically varied for example by the control system, some types of these springs also vary their length thereby providing actuation capability as well [9] They can also be classified based on their shape: Flat spring

  4. Neher–McGrath method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Neher–McGrath_method

    For wire sizes smaller than AWG No. 2 (33.6 mm 2, 0.0521 sq in), this term is also generally regarded as insignificant. R c , a {\textstyle R_{c,a}} is the effective thermal resistance between the conductor and the ambient conditions, which can require significant empirical or theoretical effort to estimate.

  5. Deformation (engineering) - Wikipedia

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

    Depending on the type of material, size and geometry of the object, and the forces applied, various types of deformation may result. The image to the right shows the engineering stress vs. strain diagram for a typical ductile material such as steel.

  6. 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 .

  7. Shear modulus - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shear_modulus

    The shear modulus is one of several quantities for measuring the stiffness of materials. All of them arise in the generalized Hooke's law: . Young's modulus E describes the material's strain response to uniaxial stress in the direction of this stress (like pulling on the ends of a wire or putting a weight on top of a column, with the wire getting longer and the column losing height),

  8. Electrical steel - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electrical_steel

    Electrical steel is usually coated to increase electrical resistance between laminations, reducing eddy currents, to provide resistance to corrosion or rust, and to act as a lubricant during die cutting. There are various coatings, organic and inorganic, and the coating used depends on the application of the steel. [11]

  9. Transfer length method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transfer_length_method

    The former component can be described with the formula , whereas represents the sheet resistance of the semiconductor substrate and the width of the metal pads. The other component that contributes to the total resistance is denoted by 2 R C {\displaystyle 2R_{C}} because when two adjacent pads are characterized two identical metallized areas ...
