Materials Selection for Mechanical Design
Abstract
A novel materials-selection procedure has been implemented in a computer program. The procedure makes use of ‘Materials Selection Charts’: a new way of displaying material property data which enables the use of a number of novel optimisation procedures. These rely on developing ‘performance indices’: a combination of material properties which, if maximised, maximise performance. The charts are designed to present the materials, and the performance indices in such a way that an optimum selection becomes possible. Section shape can be included, allowing the optimum selection of both material and shape. The software is described and a case study is presented.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
