Hardness Amplification of Optimization Problems [PDF]
In this paper, we prove a general hardness amplification scheme for optimization problems based on the technique of direct products. We say that an optimization problem ?

Automated soil hardness testing machine [PDF]
This paper describes the design and performance of a mechatronic system for controlling a standard drop-hammer mechanism that is commonly used in performing outdoor soil or ground hardness tests. A low-cost microcontroller is used to control a hydraulic

Effect of Oil – Corrosion on Tensile and Fatigue S-N Curve Properties of AA6061-T6 [PDF]
The present study described the effect of shot peening on mechanical properties and rotating corrosion –fatigue behavior (strength and life) of AA6061-T6. Ultimate tensile strength (UTS) and yield stress (YS) were reduced by 4.6% and 1.24% when immersing

Analysis of indentation size effect in copper and its alloys [PDF]
For describing the indentation size effect (ISE), numerous models, which relate the load or hardness to the indent dimensions, have been proposed. Unfortunately, it is still difficult to associate the different parameters involved in such relationships ...

Comparison of the effects of MoSi2 and CrSi2 on sintering and properties of titanium diboride (TiB2) [PDF]
Titanium diboride (TiB2) is a typical material classified as structural ceramics. However, sintering of TiB2 ceramics is difficult mainly because of a significant fraction of covalent bonds in the structure. In order to obtain dense TiB2 ceramics various

Indentation Hardness Measurements at Macro-, Micro-, and Nanoscale: A Critical Overview
The Brinell, Vickers, Meyer, Rockwell, Shore, IHRD, Knoop, Buchholz, and nanoindentation methods used to measure the indentation hardness of materials at different scales are compared, and main issues and misconceptions in the understanding of these ...

Shape-independent hardness estimation using deep learning and a GelSight tactile sensor [PDF]
Hardness is among the most important attributes of an object that humans learn about through touch. However, approaches for robots to estimate hardness are limited, due to the lack of information provided by current tactile sensors.

Proof verification and hardness of approximation problems
The class PCP(f(n),g(n)) consists of all languages L for which there exists a polynomial-time probabilistic oracle machine that used O(f(n)) random bits, queries O(g(n)) bits of its oracle and behaves as follows: If x in L then there exists an oracle y ...

Enhanced Hardness in High‐Entropy Carbides through Atomic Randomness
High‐entropy carbides (HECs) are of great interest as they are promising candidates for ultra‐high‐temperature and high‐hardness applications. To discover carbides with enhanced yield strength and hardness, mechanism‐based design approaches are needed ...
