  2. Gurney equations - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gurney_equations

    Infinitely tamped sandwich - flat explosives layer of mass C, flyer plate of mass M, and infinitely heavy backing tamper When a flat layer of explosive is placed on a practically infinitely thick supporting surface, and topped with a flyer plate of material, the flyer plate will be accelerated as described by: [ 1 ]

  3. Bending (metalworking) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bending_(metalworking)

    Diagram showing standard dimensioning scheme when using bend deduction formulas. The bend deduction BD is defined as the difference between the sum of the flange lengths (from the edge to the apex) and the initial flat length. The outside set back (OSSB) is the length from the tangent point of the radius to the apex of the outside of the bend.

  4. Sheet metal - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sheet_metal

    Sheet metal is metal formed into thin, flat pieces, usually by an industrial process. Thicknesses can vary significantly; extremely thin sheets are considered foil or leaf, and pieces thicker than 6 mm (0.25 in) are considered plate, such as plate steel, a class of structural steel. Sheet metal is available in flat pieces or coiled strips.

  5. Bending of plates - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bending_of_plates

    The left half of the plate shows the deformed shape, while the right half shows the undeformed shape. This calculation was performed using Ansys. Bending of plates, or plate bending, refers to the deflection of a plate perpendicular to the plane of the plate under the action of external forces and moments.

  6. Section modulus - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Section_modulus

    In solid mechanics and structural engineering, section modulus is a geometric property of a given cross-section used in the design of beams or flexural members.Other geometric properties used in design include: area for tension and shear, radius of gyration for compression, and second moment of area and polar second moment of area for stiffness.

  7. Plate theory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plate_theory

    In continuum mechanics, plate theories are mathematical descriptions of the mechanics of flat plates that draw on the theory of beams. Plates are defined as plane structural elements with a small thickness compared to the planar dimensions. [1] The typical thickness to width ratio of a plate structure is less than 0.1.

  8. Roark's Formulas for Stress and Strain - Wikipedia

    Roark's Formulas for Stress and Strain is a mechanical engineering design book written by Richard G. Budynas and Ali M. Sadegh. It was first published in 1938 and the most current ninth edition was published in March 2020.

  9. A36 steel - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/A36_steel

    A36 steel has a Poisson's ratio of 0.26 and a shear modulus of 11,500 ksi (79.3 GPa). [7] A36 steel in plates, bars, and shapes with a thickness of less than 8 inches (203 millimeters) has a minimum yield strength of 36 ksi (250 MPa) and ultimate tensile strength of 58–80 ksi (400–550 MPa).
