  2. Strength of materials - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Strength_of_materials

    The strength of materials is determined using various methods of calculating the stresses and strains in structural members, such as beams, columns, and shafts. The methods employed to predict the response of a structure under loading and its susceptibility to various failure modes takes into account the properties of the materials such as its yield strength, ultimate strength, Young's modulus ...

  3. Shaft (mechanical engineering) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shaft_(mechanical_engineering)

    The material used for ordinary shafts is mild steel. When high strength is required, an alloy steel such as nickel, nickel-chromium or chromium-vanadium steel is used. Shafts are generally formed by hot rolling and finished to size by cold drawing or turning and grinding. [citation needed]

  4. List of materials properties - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_materials_properties

    A material property is an intensive property of a material, i.e., a physical property or chemical property that does not depend on the amount of the material. These quantitative properties may be used as a metric by which the benefits of one material versus another can be compared, thereby aiding in materials selection.

  5. Linear-motion bearing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linear-motion_bearing

    They are economical, and easy to maintain and replace. Thomson Industries [1] (currently owned by Altra Industrial Motion [2]) is generally given credit for first producing [what is now known as] a linear ball bearing. Rolling-element bearings are generally designed to work well on hardened steel or stainless steel shafting (raceways).

  6. Nitronic - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nitronic

    Nitronic 50 is used in marine environments, including boat shafting and solid rod rigging. [7] Nitronic 60 and a similar alloy Gall-Tough have high resistance to galling , a form of wear caused by adhesion between sliding surfaces, and metal-to-metal wear.

  7. 4340 steel - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/4340_steel

    The mechanical properties of 4340 are highly dependent on the heat treatment. 4340 can commonly have yield strengths of 740-1860 MPa, tensile strengths of 860-1980 MPa, elongations of 11-23%, and plane strain fracture toughness of 53-110 MPa√m.

  8. Duplex stainless steel - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Duplex_Stainless_Steel

    Typically Grade EN 1.4462 (also called 2205). It is typical of the mid-range of properties and is perhaps the most used today Super-duplex (PREN range: 38–45) Typically grade EN 1.4410 up to so-called hyper duplex grades (PREN: >45) developed later to meet specific demands of the oil and gas as well as those of the chemical industries.

  9. Materials Science Citation Index - Wikipedia
