  2. Tread plate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tread_plate

    The most common alloy used for aluminium tread plate is 6061, although 5086-H34 and 3003-H231 are also used. [1] Diamond plate is usually steel, stainless steel or aluminium. Steel types are normally made by hot rolling, although modern manufacturers also make a raised and pressed diamond design. [citation needed]

  3. Table of specific heat capacities - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Table_of_specific_heat...

    For example, Paraffin has very large molecules and thus a high heat capacity per mole, but as a substance it does not have remarkable heat capacity in terms of volume, mass, or atom-mol (which is just 1.41 R per mole of atoms, or less than half of most solids, in terms of heat capacity per atom).

  4. Compression member - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Compression_member

    Both material strength and buckling influence the load capacity of intermediate members; and The strength of slender (long) members is dominated by their buckling load. Formulas for calculating the buckling strength of slender members were first developed by Euler , while equations like the Perry-Robertson formula are commonly applied to ...

  5. List of thermal conductivities - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_thermal_conductivities

    The plate distance is one centimeter, the special conductivity values were calculated from the Lasance approximation formula in The Thermal conductivity of Air at Reduced Pressures and Length Scales [28] and the primary values were taken from Weast at the normal pressure tables in the CRC handbook on page E2. [27]

  6. Strength of materials - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Strength_of_materials

    Compressive stress (or compression) is the stress state caused by an applied load that acts to reduce the length of the material (compression member) along the axis of the applied load; it is, in other words, a stress state that causes a squeezing of the material. A simple case of compression is the uniaxial compression induced by the action of ...

  7. Bulk modulus - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bulk_modulus

    It is defined as the ratio of the infinitesimal pressure increase to the resulting relative decrease of the volume. [ 1 ] Other moduli describe the material's response ( strain ) to other kinds of stress : the shear modulus describes the response to shear stress , and Young's modulus describes the response to normal (lengthwise stretching) stress.

  8. Bending of plates - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bending_of_plates

    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. The amount of deflection can be determined by solving the differential equations of an appropriate plate theory. The stresses in the plate can be calculated from these deflections.

  9. Material failure theory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Material_failure_theory

    In materials science, material failure is the loss of load carrying capacity of a material unit. This definition introduces to the fact that material failure can be examined in different scales, from microscopic, to macroscopic. In structural problems, where the structural response may be beyond the initiation of nonlinear material behaviour ...
