What is Hall-Petch Strengthening? Hall-Petch strengthening is a phenomenon where decreasing the average grain size of a material leads to increased yield strength and hardness. This effect is ...

When contemplating the use of perforated metal, the ability to offer a preferred level of strength can be very significant. If it is known that perforated metal is not as robust as non-perforated ...

Researchers at the University of Toronto's Faculty of Applied Science & Engineering have used machine learning to design nano ...

A research team co-led by materials scientists from City University of Hong Kong (CityU) has recently discovered a new mechanism to increase the strength and ductility of a high-entropy alloy, two ...

Chinese researchers have successfully developed and mass-produced a next-generation superconducting magnet jacket, designated CHSN01, marking a significant stride in China's pursuit of clean fusion ...

Most engineers who deal with bolted joints are familiar with torque tables for SAE-grade bolts, but these are all too often used without regard for the yield strength of internal threads or the bolt’s ...

As fields ranging from health care to robotics increasingly use flexible materials for electronic devices, Northwestern Engineering researchers have developed a thickness-dependent metric that allows ...

This file type includes high resolution graphics and schematics when applicable. However, this relationship between stress and strain in a material is linear only when the force applied is within ...
