Textbook Question
Chapter 1, Problem 1.16P
Temperature indicators are sometimes produced from a coiled metal strip that uncoils a specific amount when the temperature increases. How does this work: from what kind of material would the indicator be made; and what are the important properties that the material in the indicator must possess?

Given your understanding of what initiates and controls failure in materials, which of the following will increase the failure strength or lifetime
of a test piece or component and why?
a. Polishing to reduce surface defects
b. Decreasing the temperature below the brittle-ductile transition temperature, to make it harder
C. Increasing its volume, to give a larger cross sectional area
d. Increasing the grain size so there are less grain boundaries to initiate failure
e. Decreasing the difference between the maximum and minimum stress values, as this effects the stress concentration factor
