Material Properties Of Steel Iron

Introduction The titanic was one of the supreme distinguished, British passenger liners; it was commissioned by the white star and was manufactured in Harland and Wolff shipyard, which is situated in Belfast. The manufactures of historic ship started work on the date 31st March 1909. The titanic was an iconic structure, it was the most quickest and most impressive liner created during that era. After three years passing, the titanic construction had been completed, the “deluxe streamline machine”

modern steel warships. This move lead to the great battleships of WWII and even the ships that fight today. The steel armor plating of these ships provides great strength and longevity that is needed for their jobs. Steel is one of the most popular materials in the world due to its high strength and low cost. It is used in many different objects and scenarios, from buildings, machines, and tools to weapons, vehicles, and of course, ships. Steel also has different types, whether it be carbon steel, alloy

Cast Iron and Steel Composition, Microstructure and Classification Cast Iron and Steel are ferrous alloys – means iron is their prime constituent. In cast iron the carbon content is higher than steel. In most of the cast irons carbon exists as graphite. Graphite formation is regulated by the composition and rate of cooling. Silicon concentration greater than about 1 wt% and slower cooling rates during solidification of liquid cast iron favor graphitization. On the other hand, steels are iron-carbon

------------------------------------------------- Alloy Steel is a metal alloy whose major component is iron, with carbon content between 0.02% and 2.14% by mass. An alloy is a metallic solid solution composed of two or more elements. Complete solid solution alloys give single solid phase microstructure, while partial solutions give two or more phases that may or may not be homogeneous in distribution, depending on thermal (heat treatment) history. Alloys usually have different properties from those of the component elements

Introduction Stainless Steel is a generic term for a large family of corrosion resistant alloys from iron (FE), are containing carbon (C) and chromium and may contain other alloying elements to get different properties of steel like Nickels, Molybdenum, Titanium and Manganese. Steel metal is the most common and most widely used in major construction industries because it 's can be malleability to sheets, beams and bars, and also its very god to transfer the heat, electric and liable to Magnetization

blocks were made up of cast iron because cast iron was readily available and cheaper and has a good machinability. But as the technology advances and there is a need of improvising the basic design of an engine to improve its performance. Moreover, the overall weight of the engine increased due to complex design of the body. Therefore, in order to overcome this problems, the manufacturers around the world started looking for other materials which are as strong as cast iron but should be light in weight

Structural Weakness in the Hull of the Titanic Abstract This document will explore the structural weakness in the hull of the RMS Titanic. I will also explore the background information and different types of modern day steels compared to that of the hull of the RMS Titanic. After research, I will report these events and my findings in formal report format. All the information I find about the weaknesses of the hull will be reported using information from a number of sources. They will be referenced

similar or dissimilar materials with or without application of heat, with or without application of pressure, filler materials to produce permanent joint. Advantages Permanent joint, strength of joint will be equal or greater than the strength of base material. Leak proof joints can be produced. Similar and dissimilar metals can be joined. Used for protecting or cleaning of metal. Limitation Due to heating and cooling of base material at weld joint the base material properties will be get affected

of the gearbox and assess possible materials used, as well as manufacturing processes performed. 2.1 Worm shaft 2.1.1 Function The input shaft has a keyway cut which enables the motor to rotate the worm; this in turn results in the worm wheel rotating due to contact between the worm thread and the teeth of the worm wheel3. In order for the gearbox to continuously perform this function smoothly and efficiently over time it is important that the worm shaft’s material is carefully considered to avoid

new stainless steel alloys with novel physical properties is vital to the petroleum industry in order to develop technologies which will perform more efficiently at high temperatures and pressures. While stainless steels with the addition of nickel have mechanical and thermal properties which are desirable at high temperatures and pressures, the high cost of nickel is prohibitive towards development of new devices which can be used in harsh conditions, so discovering stainless steel alloys with similar
