  2. Slip (materials science) - Wikipedia

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

    Slip in body-centered cubic (bcc) crystals occurs along the plane of shortest Burgers vector as well; however, unlike fcc, there are no truly close-packed planes in the bcc crystal structure. Thus, a slip system in bcc requires heat to activate. Some bcc materials (e.g. α-Fe) can contain up to 48 slip systems.

  3. Critical resolved shear stress - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Critical_resolved_shear_stress

    At lower temperatures, more energy (i.e. - larger applied stress) is required to activate some slip systems. This is particularly evident in BCC materials, in which not all 5 independent slip systems are thermally activated at temperatures below the ductile-to-brittle transition temperature, or DBTT, so BCC specimens therefore become brittle.

  4. Schmid's law - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Schmid's_Law

    Schmid's Law states that the critically resolved shear stress (τ) is equal to the stress applied to the material (σ) multiplied by the cosine of the angle with the vector normal to the glide plane (φ) and the cosine of the angle with the glide direction (λ). Which can be expressed as: [2] =

  5. Materials management - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Materials_management

    Materials management often gets overlooked, even though successful projects are a result of a successful blend of labour, materials and equipment management. When materials are tracked efficiently project time can be optimized, costs can be saved and quality can be maximized. [3] There is a lack of efficient materials management in capital and ...

  6. Slip-critical joint - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Slip-critical_joint

    However, slippage of a slip-critical connection in columns may lead to column instability. Slippage of a slip critical joint in a roof truss could result in unintended ponding effects. The faying surfaces of slip-critical connections must be properly prepared in order to maximize friction forces between the surfaces joined.

  7. Cementite - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cementite

    It is a hard, brittle material, [4] normally classified as a ceramic in its pure form, and is a frequently found and important constituent in ferrous metallurgy. While cementite is present in most steels [ 5 ] and cast irons, it is produced as a raw material in the iron carbide process, which belongs to the family of alternative ironmaking ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Material_flow_management

    Material flow management (MFM) is an economic focused method of analysis and reformation of goods production and subsequent waste through the lens of material flows, ...
