Magnet strength: how measured?

Magnets can be permanent or electromagnets and non-magnets can be ferromagnetic, paramagnetic, or diamagnetic. Magnet strength is measured in gauss and can be affected by various conditions. Rare earth magnets are measured in pull force. Magnet strength decreases as you move away from the surface. A magnet is any object that produces its own magnetic […]

Ult. tensile strength?

UTS measures a material’s maximum resistance to breaking through stress testing. It is used for quality control and determining load carrying capacity in engineering processes. The breaking load is calculated by dividing the load at breaking point by the original area. Tensile strength is not always representative of maximum stress a material can withstand. Ultimate […]
