Elastic Constants of Single-crystal Aluminium Wire

An Erratum to this article was published on 15 December 1928

Abstract

IN connexion with my investigations on certain elastic properties of solid metallic elements, Prof. H. C. H. Carpenter, of the Imperial College of Science and Technology, South Kensington, has had made for me single-crystal aluminium wires of diameters 1 mm. and 2 mm. respectively. The wires were drawn down from a single-crystal bar of diameter 0.564 inches and about 4 inches in length.
