What is an Ashby Plot
Ashby diagrams compare tow different material properties in one diagram
each material is represented by a data point
therefore material classes are summarized in bubbles which makes it possible to compare material classes with regard to their properties
+ Ashby diagrams are a useful tool for optimized material selection given specific requirements and restrictions
+ mostly two material properties are plotted against each other (e.g. Modulus vs. Density)
What is decribed by the tear length ?
length at wich a freely hanging cross section of a material breaks off due to its own weight at the fastening
