  2. Specific modulus - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Specific_modulus

    Thus the second moment of area will vary approximately as the inverse of the cube of the density, and performance of the beam will depend on Young's modulus divided by density cubed. However, caution must be exercised in using this metric. Thin-walled beams are ultimately limited by local buckling and lateral-torsional buckling. These buckling ...

  3. Converting (metallurgy) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Converting_(metallurgy)

    The converting process occurs in a converter. Two kinds of converters are widely used: horizontal and vertical. Two kinds of converters are widely used: horizontal and vertical. Horizontal converters of the Peirce-Smith type [ fr ] (which are an improvement of the Manhès-David converter [ fr ] ) prevail in the metallurgy of non-ferrous metals .

  4. 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.

  5. Superflip - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Superflip

    The superflip is a completely symmetrical combination, which means applying a superflip algorithm to the cube will always yield the same position, irrespective of the orientation in which the cube is held. The superflip is self-inverse; i.e. performing a superflip algorithm twice will bring the cube back to the starting position.

  6. 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),

  7. Wolfsegg Iron - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wolfsegg_Iron

    The Wolfsegg Iron, also known as the Salzburg Cube, is a small cuboid mass of iron that was found buried in Tertiary lignite in Wolfsegg am Hausruck, Austria, in 1885. [1] It weighs 785 grams (1 lb 12 oz) and measures 67 mm × 67 mm × 47 mm (2¾" x 2¾" x 1¾"). Four of its sides are roughly flat, while the two remaining sides (opposite each ...

  8. Flexural modulus - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flexural_modulus

    In mechanics, the flexural modulus or bending modulus [1] is an intensive property that is computed as the ratio of stress to strain in flexural deformation, or the tendency for a material to resist bending.

  9. Steelmaking - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Steelmaking

    Steel mill with two arc furnaces. Steelmaking is the process of producing steel from iron ore and/or scrap.Steel has been made for millennia, and was commercialized on a massive scale in the 1850s and 1860s, using the Bessemer and Siemens-Martin processes.
