Literary and artistic naturalism aims at accuracy and objectivity and cultivates realistic and even sordid portrayals of people and their environment. Philosophical naturalism, which is often identified with materialism, holds that minds, spirits, and ideas are fundamentally material.
For the stiffness to weight ratio, see specific modulus. The specific strength is a material's strength (force per unit area at failure) divided by its density. It is also known as the strength-to-weight ratio or strength/weight ratio. In fiber or textile applications, tenacity is the usual measure of specific strength. The SI unit for specific strength is Pa /(kg / m 3), or N Â·m/kg, which is dimensionally equivalent to m 2 /s 2, though the latter form is rarely used.
How to calculate the weight. The weight is easily calculated. Simply multiply the appropriate alloy density by the length, width, and thickness of the required part (see worked example below). For imperial weight calculations certain measurements (fractions) need to be converted to decimal inches. For an accurate calculation it is also important to allow for the rolling tolerance which affects the thickness and the cutting tolerances which affect the width and length. These vary from thickness to thickness â please contact us for details. The acknowledged density of mild steel is 7.85 g/cm3 (0.284 lbs/in3). Depending on the alloy elements added to manufactured specifications this can vary between 7.75 and 8.05 g/cm3 (0.280 and 0.291 lbs/in3).
