A recent clinical report documents some problems with the plates implanted into fractured limbs. Specifically, some plates have become permanently bent while patients are in rehab and doing partial weight bearing activities. Your boss asks you to review the technical report that was generated by the previous test engineer (whose job you now have!) and used to verify the design. The brief report states the following... "Ti Fix-It plates were manufactured from Ti-6Al-4V (grade 5) and machined into solid 150 mm long beams with a 4 mm thick and 15 mm wide cross section. Each Ti Fix-It plate was loaded in equilibrium in a 4-point bending test (set-up configuration is provided in drawing below), with an applied load of 1000N. The maximum stress in this set-up was less than the yield stress for the…arrow_forward

Steam power plants work by removing thermal energy from a fuel source to transform water into steam. The steam that is created is used to turn a turbine. There are a variety of fuel sources that rely on steam to turn turbines to produce electricity. As a material engineer, your role is to select the best materials for the various parts ( Boiler, Turbine, and generator ) in the steam power station as in Figure 1. Your manager assigned you a project to do the following tasks A . Based on the electrical material properties, what will you choose to manufacture the rotor windings coils in the generator (Titanium, Copper, or PVC)? Give reasons for your choice. B.

What are the working and environmental conditions that causes the failure? In addition, propose measures that can be taken to prevent future incidents of this type of failure. After you have determined the failure type of your case study, your leader asked you to write shortly about the other mechanisms of failure.arrow_forward
