  2. Cold working - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cold_working

    In metallurgy, cold forming or cold working is any metalworking process in which metal is shaped below its recrystallization temperature, usually at the ambient temperature.. Such processes are contrasted with hot working techniques like hot rolling, forging, welding, etc. [1]: p.375 The same or similar terms are used in glassmaking for the equivalents; for example cut glass is made by "cold ...

  3. Work hardening - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Work_hardening

    Work hardening, also known as strain hardening, is the process by which a material's load-bearing capacity (strength) increases during plastic (permanent) deformation. This characteristic is what sets ductile materials apart from brittle materials. [1] Work hardening may be desirable, undesirable, or inconsequential, depending on the application.

  4. Drawing (manufacturing) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Drawing_(manufacturing)

    Drawing (manufacturing) Diagram of bar drawing; the workpiece is pulled from left (tension) rather than pushed from the right (compression). Drawing is a manufacturing process that uses tensile forces to elongate metal, glass, or plastic. As the material is drawn (pulled), it stretches and becomes thinner, achieving a desired shape and thickness.

  5. Glass art - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glass_art

    Several of the most common techniques for producing glass art include: blowing, kiln-casting, fusing, slumping, pâté-de-verre, flame-working, hot-sculpting and cold-working. Cold work includes traditional stained glass work as well as other methods of shaping glass at room temperature. Cut glass is worked with a diamond saw, or copper wheels ...

  6. Annealing (materials science) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Annealing_(materials_science)

    Process annealing, also called intermediate annealing, subcritical annealing, or in-process annealing, is a heat treatment cycle that restores some of the ductility to a product being cold-worked so it can be cold-worked further without breaking. The temperature range for process annealing ranges from 260 °C (500 °F) to 760 °C (1400 °F ...

  7. Hardening (metallurgy) - Wikipedia

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

    Hardening (metallurgy) Hardening is a metallurgical metalworking process used to increase the hardness of a metal. The hardness of a metal is directly proportional to the uniaxial yield stress at the location of the imposed strain. A harder metal will have a higher resistance to plastic deformation than a less hard metal.

    The 50th season of "SNL" premiered last month. Since the first show in 1975, 165 comedians and actors have been a part of "SNL.". Three new comedians joined for season 50. "Saturday Night Live" is ...

  9. Strengthening mechanisms of materials - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Strengthening_mechanisms...

    This process is easily observed while working a material (by a process of cold working in metals). Theoretically, the strength of a material with no dislocations will be extremely high ( σ ≈ G 10 {\displaystyle \sigma \approx {\frac {G}{10}}} ) because plastic deformation would require the breaking of many bonds simultaneously.
