The major parameters that describe the stress-strain curve obtained during the tension test are the tensile strength (UTS)‚ yield strength or yield point (σy)‚ elastic modulus (E)‚ percent elongation (∆L%) and the reduction in area (RA%). Toughness‚ Resilience‚ Poisson’s ratio(ν ) can also be found by the use of this testing technique. In this test‚ a specimen is prepared

cartographer and explorer of all time. He was an outdoorsman‚ navigator‚ scientist‚ artist‚ and ethnographer. His genius likely stems from three key traits‚ these traits being his admiration for Aboriginals‚ his intelligence‚ and his mental and physical toughness. David Thompson had a deep admiration for Aboriginal culture and the peoples of Aboriginal descent. Thompson even married Charlotte Small‚ a Métis woman whom he had thirteen children with. Thompson’s admiration for Aboriginal peoples is what created

Badminton is a game that involves the use of a net‚ lightweight rackets‚ and a shuttlecock. Two or four players play it‚ which is played indoors‚ on a marked-out area 44 ft (13.41 m) long by 17 ft (5.18 m) wide for the two-player game and 20 ft (6.10 m) wide for the four-player game. A net is fixed across the middle of the court‚ with the top of the net set at 5 ft (1.52 m) from the ground at the centre and 5 ft 1 in (1.55 m) at the posts. The players hit the shuttlecock back and forth over the net

On his journey to protect the future of this apocalyptic society toughness and relentlessness are two traits that he displays. Like Santiago he battles through his own struggles to complete a greater goal. With no hope in the world Theo wants to help stop the madness‚ and on a long journey he develops as a hero. Heroic

Tensile testing machine Toughness is another important property‚ toughness is defined as how much energy a material can absorb before it breaks. Brittle metals have low toughness and that’s why they shatter easily. Casting is done by pouring hot liquid metal into a mould of the finished product. There are many different processes of casting used in

hardness and its rather high impact strength. GPPS‚ also known as the ordinary polystyrene‚ is a raw material to make HIPS. HIPS is made out of ordinary or general purpose polystyrene and rubber. The addition of rubber to the polymer improves the toughness of the material; hence it can withstand greater impact strength. This concludes the fact that HIPS has higher impact strength than GPPS.

Army paratroopers are the manliest soldiers due to their ability demonstrate the ability to act‚ toughness‚ and the lack of emotion to perform airborne operations. In the airborne community‚ paratroopers consider themselves to be better and manlier than their regular soldier counterparts. It is an environment filled with Type A personalities where everyone

Introduction: In early 60’s a historical survey of metallurgical research where bainite was discovered. This microstructure was named by Bian’s colleageus at the United States Steel Corportion. At first microstructure of martensite and bainite seem similar‚ which had many aspects on their transformation of mechanisms. Microstructure of bainite seems to be darker than the mastenisite under a microscope. The reason behind bainite structure became useful was because of its hardness. There are few
