    I don't think this video would have a huge effect, but the production methods video I made definitely would. That was what triggered the massive societal change, humans had been controlling carbon content way before the Romans. They knew it mattered, but may not have known why. Charcoal production was a massive industry for a reason. We still don't fully understand why to be honest. Getting straight answers on why pearlite increases yield strength was very difficult. There is forging in Breath of the Wild? Haven't got that far yet.

    @_ David _ Yes and no? I mean, you can just learn the process and replicate it without knowing any of the science involved. However, to truly excel and set yourself apart in the field, you'd have to know every step of the process and what your making is for (what strain it will endure) and what's actually happening on the microscopic level and how your routine needs to be tweaked in order to better the metal for it's specific use. I think understanding it on a microscopic level isn't always necessary, but is very much so important and sometimes crucial such as with a train track or something. Don't want the metal to give and risk a train going off the rails, cuz on a scale of good to bad, a train derailing is generally closer to a bad.

    Pearlite is actually quite well understood. It's laminar structure is composed of alternating layers of ferrite and cementite and the interfaces between each layer as well as the grain boundaries act to stop dislocation movement and crack propagation through the bulk of the material. There are some TEM videos of dislocations moving through materials which is really neat.

    @Winter's Destruction Very much so. Only Carbon steel between 0.2 to about 1.5 percent carbon can be effectively hardened. Other processes include things like case hardening which adds a layer of carbon rich steel in an otherwise low-carbon part by surrounding it with free carbon in a hot environment. The temperatures in this video seem taken out of thin air and the optimal heating temp, heating time, quench oil type and time and quench temp, as well as tempering temp and time vary a bit between steeltypes down to variations of 10°C.

    Small correction - hardening steel does NOT stiffen it. The elastic modulus of steel is more or less completely insensitive to quenching, tempering, etc, and as a result, mild and hardened steels have the same elastic modulus. It is a common misconception that hardening a steel stiffens it, but this is not true; the elastic modulus does not change. What hardened steel DOES have is significantly less ductility (plastic strain before breaking)... this is largely what drives the misconception. But, stiffness is designed for strictly within the elastic regime, and there, the modulus of steel is constant.

    @@RealEngineering its like higher mathematics. You have to learn the language and terminology...that was always the hardest part for me. The actual practice and application is FAR easier with the right tools and equipment once you understand the process...at least to me, IMHE. Example: I can make a knife from a known quantity steel and a MDS processing sheet and. HT and tempering oven etc. But if you hand me an unknown quaniity steel, the best I can do is spark test it and HT test a sample. Alec has the EXPERIENCE and you guys have the knowledge and can speak the materials science language. Right now, I need a TRANSLATOR of sorts into simpler language to get the point across. Hence you would do a far better job. And oh yeah...those flying hammer chips and workhardened mushrooming can put a man in the hospital as fast as any firearm! Thats flying razor blades...almost😄

    IkesThePyro That is not a typical machinists/bench vice but rather a ‘post vice’ used by blacksmiths to take abuse from hammering. The jaws are forged rather than cast and are long, and hinged together. The screw has massive threads compared to a machinists vice. Lastly, it has a post/leg that extends to the floor to transfer some of the energy from heavy blows. Normally one wouldn’t hit cold metal in it, especially not sideways... so this was a little bit abusive, but nothing it couldn’t handle on rare occasions.

  • 5 жыл бұрын

    As an EE & CS student, what tools do you use to determine the properties? When making the alloys for example, how sensitive is it to variations in temperature (I assume the transition points are somewhat sharp / limited in extent)? Another thing I've been wondering is whether you could use EM fields to control the direction, size, or location of the crystals. Having control over that to a greater degree than with temperature would be very beneficial, I imagine.
