Where other metals exhibit limited lifespan, titanium endures. The specific gravity of titanium is 4.51 g /cm3 - about 60% that of steel, half that of copper and 1.7 times that of aluminum. In addition to having excellent mechanical strength (comparable to mild steel), titanium is durable and shock resistant.
Russia is located on both the European and Asian continents. The continental divide is the Ural Mountains, Asia on the east and Europe on the west. Russia is partly in Europe â¦ and partly in Asia. Or to clarify (slightly) the above: Russia is in Europe while Siberia and many other states in the Russian Federation are in Asia. Basically, west of the Urals is in Europe.
In this section Eastern Europe is defined as the territory of old Tsar-Russia and the former Soviet Union. This Russia was a large but scarcely populated country on the outskirts of Europe until the 18th century. It was Peter the Great who transformed Russia into a major European power and he and his successors expanded Russia to the west.
