Thanks for the replies. I can't find elasticity details for most of the alloys I am interested in on Matweb unfortunately.
They are materials used in the jewelry trade such as gold alloys (gold alloyed with copper/silver). Perhaps Matweb is biased towards industrial/research materials.
I can...
Thanks for the response, Cloa.
So does that mean that an alloy of copper (face-centered cubic structure - FCC) and silver (also FCC) can be calculated simply as above, but that tungsten (body-centered cubic - BCC) and silver (FCC) cannot be? Or is that too much of a simplification?
I am trying to estimate the elastic properties of several alloys as accurately but simply as possible. I am a computer engineer not a materials engineer, so I am struggling here!
I have heard that the youngs modulus of an alloy may not differ greatly from those of its elements.
Does this mean...
