Beryllium Chemistry and Processing
Chapter 17: Mechanical Properties of Beryllium
-
Published:2009
Abstract
This chapter describes the effect of processing variables on the mechanical properties of beryllium, including tensile and yield strength, fracture toughness, creep and fatigue strength, ductile-to-brittle transition, and notch sensitivity. It also discusses the effects of chemical composition, impurities, and grain size and the use of hydrostatic testing.
