  2. List of blade materials - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_blade_materials

    Stainless steel is a popular class of material for knife blades because it resists corrosion and is easy to maintain. However, it is not impervious to corrosion or rust. For a steel to be considered stainless it must have a Chromium content of at least 10.5%. [24] 154CM / ATS-34 steels. These two steels are practically identical in composition ...

  3. Strain hardening exponent - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Strain_hardening_exponent

    In one study, strain hardening exponent values extracted from tensile data from 58 steel pipes from natural gas pipelines were found to range from 0.08 to 0.25, [1] with the lower end of the range dominated by high-strength low alloy steels and the upper end of the range mostly normalized steels.

  4. Fatigue limit - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fatigue_limit

    Representative curves of applied stress vs number of cycles for steel (showing an endurance limit) and aluminium (showing no such limit).. The fatigue limit or endurance limit is the stress level below which an infinite number of loading cycles can be applied to a material without causing fatigue failure. [1]

  5. 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 .

  6. Work hardening - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Work_hardening

    Applications include the heading of bolts and cap screws and the finishing of cold rolled steel. In cold forming, metal is formed at high speed and high pressure using tool steel or carbide dies. The cold working of the metal increases the hardness, yield strength, and tensile strength. [7]

  7. Sword making - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sword_making

    This allows the sword to have the strength and the ability to hold a sharp edge, as well as to cause the sword to tend to bend rather than flex under stress. The process starts in the combining of the iron and carbon, by heating iron sand to 1200-1500 degrees Celsius in a traditional furnace, or tatara , for 72 hours.

  8. Charpy impact test - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Charpy_impact_test

    According to ASTM A370, [12] the standard specimen size for Charpy impact testing is 10 mm × 10 mm × 55 mm. Subsize specimen sizes are: 10 mm × 7.5 mm × 55 mm, 10 mm × 6.7 mm × 55 mm, 10 mm × 5 mm × 55 mm, 10 mm × 3.3 mm × 55 mm, 10 mm × 2.5 mm × 55 mm. Details of specimens as per ASTM A370 (Standard Test Method and Definitions for ...

  9. Euler's critical load - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Euler's_critical_load

    Using the free body diagram in the right side of figure 3, and making a summation of moments about point x: = + = where w is the lateral deflection. According to Euler–Bernoulli beam theory , the deflection of a beam is related with its bending moment by: M = − E I d 2 w d x 2 . {\displaystyle M=-EI{\frac {d^{2}w}{dx^{2}}}.}
