elastic buckling strength
11Work hardening — Work hardening, also known as strain hardening or cold working, is the strengthening of a metal by plastic deformation. This strengthening occurs because of dislocation movements within the crystal structure of the material.[1] Any material with… …
12History of structural engineering — The history of structural engineering dates back to at least 2700 BC when the step pyramid for Pharaoh Djoser was built by Imhotep, the first engineer in history known by name. Pyramids were the most common major structures built by ancient… …
13Deformation (engineering) — This article is about deformation in engineering. For a more rigorous treatment, see Deformation (mechanics). Compressive stress results in deformation which shortens the object but also expands it outwards. In materials science, deformation is a …
