An ideal crystal is one which has the same unit cell containing the same lattice points across the whole of the crystal. At absolute zero, crystals tend to have perfectly ordered arrangement of ions and there are no crystal imperfections in solids. With the increase in temperature, the Read more…
Stiffness of Metal The resistance of a metal to elastic deformation is called its stiffness of metal. Since the deflections produced in many products by operating loads may affect the workability of the components, the stiffness of the material is often a limiting design factor. Peculiarly enough, the Read more…
Hi friends, In this article, I am discussing the elasticity in metals and polymers and some more related terms. You will find this information interesting and useful, I hope so. Elasticity is a property, possessed by the materials of resuming its original shape upon removal any force, which Read more…
Hi friends, In this article, I am discussing the “What is creep in material science?” Types of creep and creep strength. So let us start. Metals will deform under steady service loads less than the short-time elastic strength if the loads are applied for a very long time Read more…
Hi friends, In this article, I shall define stress and strain and explain stress and strain curve. So let us start with our topic. When an external force applied to a body changes the size or shape of the body then at each cross-section of the body an Read more…
Hi friends, In this article, am discussing properties of superconductors and applications of superconductors. This article will provide you sufficient information about superconductors. The resistivity of most metals increases with increase in temperature and vice-versa. There are some metals and chemical compounds whose resistivity becomes zero when their Read more…
Hi friends, In this article, I am going to discuss the data acquisition system block diagram, function of each block, and its applications. This article will provide you an overview about data acquisition system in simple words. Data acquisition system (DAS) is a computerized system that collects data Read more…
