The document discusses material property databases and their features. It provides examples of several popular open source and paid databases, including MatWeb, MakeItFrom, MatDat, MatMatch, MaterialConnexion, Total Materia, Knovel, Altair, Jahm, and others. It summarizes the key features of each database, such as providing material properties, comparisons, experimental data, models, search tools, and links to suppliers. It also provides screenshots of search pages and examples of material property data from several databases.

2. • Proper selection of the material suitable for a specific application is one of the most important and complex
issues that needs to be addressed ever earlier during product development.
• For modelling and simulation of the response of loaded structures and components, among other information,
properties which describe material behavior must be known. Except for basic monotonic properties,
experimental characterization of material behavior is complicated, expensive and, in the case of cyclic/fatigue
experiments, it can be long-lasting as well.
• Finding adequate test equipment is also difficult, in no small part due to the almost non-existent information on
capabilities and equipment in academic and industrial research laboratories.

38. This database is a small collection of thermal properties for materials used to construct common objects found in
households and offices. Thermal properties which are relevant to fire behavior include the thermal conductivity (k),
the mass density (ρ), the specific heat (Cp), and for materials that may undergo thermal degradation (i.e., pyrolysis) the
heat of gasification (Lg) and the ignition temperature (Tig).

43. The present invention relates generally to predictive mechanical properties of cast components, and more
particularly to such systems, methods, and articles of manufacture based on consideration of dendrite arm
spacing (DAS) values and porosity values. The casting process simulation of one or both of them helps to
predict the tensile properties and fatigue life of the cast aluminum alloy by determining the distribution of
material properties across the cast component.
