  2. Section modulus - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Section_modulus

    The plastic section modulus is calculated as the sum of the areas of the cross section on either side of the PNA, each multiplied by the distance from their respective local centroids to the PNA. [16] = + where: A C is the area in compression A T is the area in tension y C, y T are the distances from the PNA to their centroids. Plastic section ...

  3. Plastic moment - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plastic_Moment

    In structural engineering, the plastic moment (M p) is a property of a structural section. It is defined as the moment at which the entire cross section has reached its yield stress . This is theoretically the maximum bending moment that the section can resist – when this point is reached a plastic hinge is formed and any load beyond this ...

  4. Nose cone design - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nose_cone_design

    General parameters used for constructing nose cone profiles. Given the problem of the aerodynamic design of the nose cone section of any vehicle or body meant to travel through a compressible fluid medium (such as a rocket or aircraft, missile, shell or bullet), an important problem is the determination of the nose cone geometrical shape for optimum performance.

  5. Flexural modulus - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flexural_modulus

    For a 3-point test of a rectangular beam behaving as an isotropic linear material, where w and h are the width and height of the beam, I is the second moment of area of the beam's cross-section, L is the distance between the two outer supports, and d is the deflection due to the load F applied at the middle of the beam, the flexural modulus: [1]

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yield_surface

    A cross section of the von Mises cylinder on the plane of , produces the elliptical shape of the yield surface. Figure 3: View of Huber–Mises–Hencky yield surface in 3D space of principal stresses Figure 4: Comparison of Tresca–Guest and Huber–Mises–Hencky criteria in 2D space ( σ 1 , σ 2 {\displaystyle \sigma _{1},\sigma _{2}} )

  7. Moisture vapor transmission rate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Moisture_vapor...

    The most common international unit for the MVTR is g/m 2 /day, or "metric perm". In the USA, g/100in 2 /day is also in use, which is 0.064516 (approximately 1/15) of the value of g/m 2 /day units. Typical rates in aluminium foil laminates may be as low as 0.001 g/m 2 /day, whereas the rate in fabrics can measure up to several thousand g/m 2 /day.

  8. Drucker–Prager yield criterion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Drucker–Prager_yield...

    The Drucker–Prager yield criterion [1] is a pressure-dependent model for determining whether a material has failed or undergone plastic yielding. The criterion was introduced to deal with the plastic deformation of soils. It and its many variants have been applied to rock, concrete, polymers, foams, and other pressure-dependent materials.

  9. Design of plastic components - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Design_of_plastic_components

    Plastic material suppliers and molders are the authority on what is the lowest acceptable draft. In most instances, 1degree per side will be sufficient, but between 2 degree and 5 degree per side would be preferable. If the design is not compatible with 1 degree, then allow for 0.5 degree on each side.
