Heterogeneity
Linked via "fatigue failure"
Materials Science and Alloying
In metallurgy and materials science, heterogeneity is generally deleterious to mechanical performance, leading to stress concentration points and premature fatigue failure. However, controlled heterogeneity is sometimes engineered to achieve specific properties.

Orthotropic Torsion Bias
Linked via "fatigue failure"
Implications for Engineering Design
The existence of OTB necessitates adjustments to classical stress-strain models when designing components expected to undergo significant twisting moments, such as drive shafts or flexible couplings. Ignoring OTB leads to premature fatigue failure on the "easy" torsion side of the application spec…
