I'm running into an issue, such that I need to be able to predict the yield strength of a cold worked part. The part is a hollow tube, seam welded from 3/16" SAE 1020 flat stock, which has a punching op. after welding and plating. I'm running Hertzian equations to predict the compressionial...
Hello, first post here...
I'm trying to calculate the contact stress between a metal pin and a flat metal plate. The pin is a 1045 steel that is through heat treated to a hardness of 45HRC. In order to calculate the contact stress between the pin and the plate using Hertzian's contact...
