Sentences with phrase «of ductility»

However, conventional techniques for strengthening this class of stainless steels typically comes at the expense of ductility.

A good structural material will have the right balance of ductility — the ability to bend in response to stress — and strength.

«New twist makes for better steel: Greater strength without loss of ductility.»

Greater strength without loss of ductility.

Not exact matches

As emergentists, too, would say; such properties as inflammability, ductility, and temperature of macro-objects are not among the properties of individual molecules or atoms.

«For both alloys we found the niobium grain refiner could mean an end to the over-engineering of cast components with potential weight savings of up to 30 per cent with no loss of strength or ductility.

If conventional IF steel is made strong enough to withstand 450 megapascals (MPa) of stress, it has very low ductility — the steel can only be stretched to less than 5 percent of its length without breaking.

«So it's critical in this kind of system to push this strength - ductility limit as far as possible.»

Engineers at Brown University, three Chinese universities, and the Chinese Academy of Sciences have shown that when cylinders of steel are twisted, their strength is improved without sacrificing ductility.

The result is a steel cylinder with the best of both worlds — the surface of the cylinder becomes stronger and more resistant to cracking, while the inside retains its original ductility.

«We call it the strength - ductility tradeoff,» said Huajian Gao, professor of engineering at Brown and senior author on this new research.

The work took several years and required the contributions of the Ames Lab, which did X-ray diffraction to understand material performance; Georgia Tech, which performed modeling to understand how the material could have high strength and high ductility, and Oregon State, which performed characterization and composition analysis.

LLNL scientist Morris Wang (left) and postdoc researcher Thomas Voisin played key roles in a collaboration that successfully 3D printed one of the most common forms of marine grade stainless steel that promises to break through the strength - ductility tradeoff barrier.

Researchers have achieved a breakthrough in 3D printing one of the most common forms of marine grade stainless steel — a low - carbon type called 316L — that promises an unparalleled combination of high - strength and high - ductility properties for the...

Awareness goes back to at least WWII, when some Liberty Ships sailing in the cold waters of the North Atlantic broke in half due to temperatures lower than the nil ductility transition temperature (NDTT) of the steel used in the hulls.

These bubbles had disappeared completely by 1100 meters, most probably as a result of the diffusion of gas molecules into the ice lattice, and this, together with the formation below 1200 meters of an oriented crystal fabric (characterized by a strong vertical orientation of crystallographic c axes) is believed to be responsible for the greatly increased ductility of the deeper cores.

Reinforced concrete is used for its structural properties of strength, rigidity, ductility and continuity, to resist lateral forces such as earthquakes and wind.
