  2. Ductility (Earth science) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ductility_(Earth_science)

    Ductility is a material property that can be expressed in a variety of ways. Mathematically, it is commonly expressed as a total quantity of elongation or a total quantity of the change in cross sectional area of a specific rock until macroscopic brittle behavior, such as fracturing, is observed.

  3. Electroshapable material - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electroshapable_material

    It will heat up homogeneously by the Joule effect until it reaches its melting temperature, beyond which it becomes sufficiently viscous to be malleable to the hand. Ideally the thermoplastic polymer selected has a relatively low melting temperature (60 °C for example) so that the user can handle it without danger of burning and to reduce the ...

  5. Shape-memory alloy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shape-memory_alloy

    The two most prevalent shape-memory alloys are copper-aluminium-nickel and nickel-titanium (), but SMAs can also be created by alloying zinc, copper, gold and iron.Although iron-based and copper-based SMAs, such as Fe-Mn-Si, Cu-Zn-Al and Cu-Al-Ni, are commercially available and cheaper than NiTi, NiTi-based SMAs are preferable for most applications due to their stability and practicability [1 ...

    Ontario Malleable Iron Company (OMIC) was an iron foundry established in Oshawa, Ontario by brothers John Cowan and William Cowan. The factory was in operation from 1872 until closure in 1977. The factory was in operation from 1872 until closure in 1977.

  9. Non-malleable code - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Non-malleable_code

    A non-malleable code ensures that either the tampering experiment results in a correct decoded-message =, or the decoded-message is completely independent of and unrelated to the source-message. In other word, the notion of non-malleability for codes is similar, in spirit, to notions of non-malleability for cryptographic primitives (such as ...
