SUMMARY
Steels: increase TS, Hardness (and cost) by adding
--C (low alloy steels)
--Cr, V, Ni, Mo, W (high alloy steels)
--ductility usually decreases w/additions.
Non-ferrous:
--Cu, Al, Ti, Mg, Refractory, and noble metals.
Fabrication techniques:
--forming, casting, joining.
Hardenability
--increases with alloy content.
Precipitation hardening
--effective means to increase strength in
Al, Cu, and Mg alloys.
