Size Reduction) 3) Add other elements in solid solution (Solid Solution Strengthening) 4) Add second phase particles (Precipitation or Age Hardening) • These mechanisms may be combined. • For example‚ the world’s strongest structural material (with some ductility) is steel piano wire. It combines all four strengthening mechanisms‚ and can have a yield strength of 500‚000 psi. One wire‚ 0.1” in diameter‚ can hold up a 4‚000 lb Ford Explorer. STRAIN HARDENING • Ductile material becomes harder
