4. Two additional data sheets on space use materials
(Collaboration with the Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency (JAXA))
“NIMS SPACE USE MATERIALS STRENGTH DATA SHEET No. 25: Data sheet on fatigue crack growth properties of Alloy 718 (1338K ST) base metal and welded joints"
“NIMS SPACE USE MATERIALS STRENGTH DATA SHEET No. 26: Data sheet on high-cycle fatigue properties of Alloy 625 base metal and welded joint”
5. Release of data sheet technical documents on structural materials, revealing fatigue properties of titanium alloy
“NIMS STRUCTURAL MATERIALS DATA SHEET TECHNICAL DOCUMENT No. 20: Fatigue properties of titanium alloys”
The previously issued data sheets are frequently used as reference data that serves as standards for strength design and material selection in various fields. We hope that these new publications will also be useful in a wide range of applications.
