Be-Cu precipitation hardening experiment

The following is a laboratory experiment designed to further a student's understanding of materials science. The student performing this experiment should have a knowledge of binary phase diagrams. The objectives of this experiment are as follows: (1) to give the student a hands-on approach to changing materials properties through heat treatment of a specimen; (2) to quantify the amount of strengthening obtained in the specimen; and (3) to encourage the student to speculate about the structural changes that have occurred in the material to cause the changes in strength.

Multilayer plated wire shows promise as memory device

Multilayer plated wire memory system surpasses planar thin film memories because of its high speed, simplicity, and high output. The device consists of 5 mil Be-Cu wire plated with Ni-Fe alloy about 1 micron thick crossed orthogonally by word lines.

An evaluation of the fatigue crack growth and fracture toughness properties of beryllium-copper alloy CDA172

A series of fracture mechanics tests, using the Be-Cu alloy CDA172 in the round rod product form, was conducted in a lab air environment at room temperature. Tensile data is presented in both the L and C directions and K sub Ic data in both the C-R and C-L orientations. Fracture toughness values were derived from M(T) (center cracked), PS(T) (surface cracked) and CC01 (corner cracked) specimens of varying thickness. Fatigue crack growth data were obtained for the C-R orientation at stress ratio of 0.1, 0.4, and 0.7 and for the C-L orientation at stress ratios of 0.1, 0.3, 0.4, and 0.7.
