Nonferrous alloys

Nonferrous Alloys In metallurgy, a non-ferrous metal is any metal, including alloys, that does not contain iron in appreciable amounts. Generally more expensive than ferrous metals, non-ferrous metals are used because of desirable properties such as low weight (e.g.,...

Heat Treatment of Steel

Heat Treatment of Steel Heat Treatment is the controlled heating and cooling of metals to alter their physical and mechanical properties without changing the product shape. Heat treatment is sometimes done inadvertently due to manufacturing processes that either heat...

Stainless Steel

Stainless Steel In metallurgy, stainless steel, also known as inox steel or inox from French “inoxydable”, is a steel alloy with a minimum of 10.5% chromium content by mass. Stainless steel does not readily corrode, rust or stain with water as ordinary...

Nichrome

Nichrome Nichrome (NiCr, nickel-chrome, chrome-nickel, etc.) generally refers to any alloy of nickel, chromium, and often iron and/or other elements or substances. Nichrome alloys are typically used in resistance wire. They are also used in some dental restorations...

Potential Method in data structure

Potential Method in data structure Potential (Physicist’s) Method As we saw the aggregate method and the banker’s method for dealing with extensible arrays. Now let us look at the physicist’s method. Suppose we can define a potential function Φ (read...
