Corrosion engineering
plane strain
Materials science; Corrosion engineering
The stress condition in linear elastic fracture mechanics in which there is zero strain in a direction normal to both the axis of applied tensile stress and the direction of crack growth (that is, ...
yield stress
Materials science; Corrosion engineering
The stress level in a material at or above the yield strength but below the ultimate strength, i.e., a stress in the plastic range.
shear strength
Materials science; Corrosion engineering
The stress required to produce fracture in the plane of cross section, the conditions of loading being such that the directions of force and of resistance are parallel and opposite although their ...
creep-rupture strength
Materials science; Corrosion engineering
The stress that will cause fracture in a creep test at a given time in a specified constant environment. Also called stress-rupture strength.
microstructure
Materials science; Corrosion engineering
The structure of a prepared surface of a metal as revealed by a microscope at a magnification exceeding 25x.
Macrostructure
Materials science; Corrosion engineering
The structure of metals as revealed by macroscopic examination of the etched surface of a polished specimen.
total carbon
Materials science; Corrosion engineering
The sum of the free carbon and combined carbon (including carbon in solution) in a ferrous alloy.
