Hardness a fixed height onto a material. This type of hardness is related to elasticity. The device used to take this measurement is known as a scleroscope. Two scales that measures rebound hardness are the Leeb rebound hardness test and Bennett hardness scale. There are five hardening processes: Hall-Petch strengthening, work hardening, solid solution strengthening, precipitation hardening, and martensitic transformation. In solid mechanics, solids generally have three responses to force, depending on the amount of force and the type of material: Strength is a measure of the extent of a material's elastic range, or elastic and plastic ranges together. This is
Leeb rebound hardness test traditional hardness scales HRC, HB and HV mainly for convention reasons between supplier and customer. http://www.importecnica.com.br/durometros.html Leeb rebound hardness test The Leeb Rebound Hardness Test (LRHT) is one of the four most used methods for testing metal hardness. This portable method is mainly used for testing sufficiently large workpieces (mainly above 1 kg). It measures the coefficient of restitution. It is a form of nondestructive testing. The Leeb rebound hardness test method was developed in year 1975 by Leeb and Brandestini at Proceq SA to provide a portable hardness test for metals. It was developed as an alternative to the
