Are forged aluminum parts stronger than parts machined from a solid block of similar material?
FasterMotors
Forged aluminum parts are indeed stronger than a part machined by a solid block of the same material. The reason for this is that a forged part has been strain hardened through repeated impact force. Forging allows for preferential grain direction to occur as well as a refined grain boundary which leads to precipitation hardening.
A machined part from a solid block can contain many micro void/crack defects which can allow crack propagation under load. Additionally a solid block does not experience the same grain boundary refinement and preferential grain flow direction. The same can be applied to other metals in cast vs forged production.

Hooves and nails are made of what substance?
Hooves are made of material similar to the human fingernail. However it is much thicker and thus much stronger.
Is copper stronger then nickel?
Their mechanical material properties are very similar with copper coming out marginally higher in terms of yield strength. This is the amount of stress required to make the metal deform permanently.
Why do zinc and iron react similar to aluminum?
All these elements are metal. They have same properties.

The difference between German and Aluminum?
Germanium is a chemical silver-white metalloid chemically similar to tin. It is an important semiconductor material used in transistors. It is named after the country of Germany. Aluminium is a silvery white and ductile member of the boron group of chemical elements. Aluminium is resistant to corrosion. Aluminum structural components are vital to the aerospace industry and very important in other areas of transportation and building.

How do you make aluminum into a bike?
With some difficulty. Aluminium ingots from the foundry are pressed/extruded through a die to form tubes. The tubes are then mitered and joined together to form the frame. Something similar is done to create the rims. Stems, fork crowns are as a rule cast, then machined before assembly.
Do you have to put a washer on the oil drain plug?
yes if not oil will leak from around the oil plug.... washer must be aluminum, copper, plastic, rubber, or similar material so it seals properly
Is gallium shiner than aluminum?
After my opinion they are similar.

Would gallium react with acetic acid?
No it wold not because Gallium is in the same family as Aluminum and therefore has similar properties to Aluminum. Aluminum does not react with acetic acid.

What are helicopters made of?
AnswerHelicopters are made of aluminum alloy, steel, composite material and titanium alloy. Modern helicopters have a lot of its fuselage or blades made of composite materials.BladesHelicopter blades can be made out of wood, aluminum or composite. The very first helicopter blades were cut from wood laminates, just like early airplane propellors. Then they made them out of Aluminum. The front Spar of the blade is an aluminum extrusion that is shaped like a "D". The wing behind the spar is made of honey-comb aluminum which is thin as foil and aligned vertically. This is covered with a aluminum skin and a small wedge of aluminum is attached at the trailing edge.Composite rotor blades are similar construction. The Spar is made by wrapping composite fibers around a form for the length of the blade. Then a composite honey-comb material is attached to it and covered with composite fabric material for the skin of the blade. This is baked in an oven. Usually a steel leading-edge abrasion strip is attached that acts to protect it from damage by hail and rain.
What is the difference between vinyl and leather ice skates?
Vinyl-Synthetic resin or plastic consisting of polyvinyl chloride or a related polymer Leather-A material made from the skin of an animal by tanning or a similar process. from google definitions leather is better than vinyl as it is a real material as they are more stronger that the synthetic one.
