Hi,
Materials is not my area of expertise so I have a question:
Say we have two specimens of A36 steel. The first has a ductile–brittle transition temperature of -20 degrees celcius and the second -10 degrees celcius.
Does this suggest that the first specimen will have a higher toughness at...
If I was you I would approach it a bit differently until you sort out the teething problems. I would use a less slender cantilever beam and a point load at the end, so you can calculate stress and deflection then compare FEA vs Hand. Once you get that working properly, move onto the gravity...
Hi,
I'm a young graduate, a couple of years experience.
I recently disagreed with my boss over a critical weld in a design.
I noted it in my diary, did what he said and issued the report.

Thanks!
