Metallurgical Engineering
What is the study of metals and their chemical and physical properties called?
Metallurgy
Which term describes the ability of a material to return to its original size and shape after being deformed?
Elasticity
The branch of engineering concerned with designs and processes responsible keeping the product to its qualities and usefulness.
Product Durability Engineering
The ability of a substance to be drawn into a wire.
Ductility
The ability to be formed into sheets
Malleability
The force on an area of an object that tends to deform it is called.
Stress
What is the term for the weakening of a material, often to the point of breaking, due to repeated motion?
Fatigue
The number of deforming motions that it can endure before breaking.
Fatigue life
If two metals, copper and tin are mix, it produces what?
Bronze
All materials have an / a__________, which is the maximum force that causes deformation.
Elastic limit
A material’s resistance to breaking due to material fatigue is called.
Fatigue resistance
It is the shaping of metals by pouring molten metal into a mold.
Casting
Which branch of metallurgy focuses on removing metals from rocks?
Process metallurgist
The maximum amount of stretching force that a material can withstand without breaking is called.
Tensile strength
Which type of deforming motion involves bending back and forth?
Flexing
The material is deformed only while under stress.
Elastic deformation
The three main branches of metallurgy does a metallurgical engineer generally work.
Chemical
Physical
Process Metallurgy
What happens to a rubber band after stress is applied and then released?
It returns to its original shape if the stress is within its elastic limit
What is product durability?
It measures how a product keeps it original qualities and how a product is useful.
The three types of deforming motions.
Compressing and expanding
Twisting
Flexing
