Chemistry - Module 2 - Metal 1. Metals have been extracted and used for many thousands of years * Outline and examine some uses of different metals through history‚ including contemporary uses‚ as uncombined metals or as alloys. Contemporary Uses of common metals Metal | Uses | Iron and Steel (an alloy with <2% carbon)Good tensile strength‚ cheap‚ rusts (corrodes) | - Railways‚ bridges‚ buildings- motor cars bodies‚ ships and trains- Engine blocks‚ fire hydrants‚ drainage

Applications of Laser Application 1 : Defense A Laser Range Finder is an example of an application in the defense system of a country. To knock down an enemy tank‚ it is necessary to range it very accurately. Because of its high intensity and very low divergence even after travelling quite a few kilometers‚ laser is ideally suited for this purpose. The laser range finders using neodymium and carbon dioxide lasers have become a standard item for artillery and tanks. These laser range

SUMMER INTERNSHIP REPORT FINITE ELEMENT TRANSIENT THERMAL ANALYSIS OF LASER WELDING PROCESS ABSTRACT In this project‚ Laser welding process has successfully been used for joining of two stainless steel plates. The sizes of the metal plates are 50mmX40mmX2mm each. The distribution of the temperature field in laser welding using stainless steel sheets were simulated by ANSYS. The thermal properties which have been used for thermal simulation are assumed to be varying with temperature

Metals and Non-metals Elements are divided mainly into two groups on the basis of physical and chemical properties – Metal and Non-metal. Metals: Part - I Physical Properties of Metals:- Hardness:- Most of the metals are hard‚ except alkali metals‚ such as sodium‚ potassium‚ lithium‚ etc. Sodium‚ potassium‚ lithium etc. are very soft metals‚ these can be cut using knife. Strength:- Most of the metals are strong and have high tensile strength. Because of this big structures are made using metals
