Physical metallurgical engineers study the nature and properties of different metals and their alloys and research their responses to applied and manipulated forces. They conduct experiments using different techniques, such as refining, and design new products that can be sold commercially. Once established as engineers, they will often specialize in a particular area such as metals, corrosion, semiconductors or pyrometallurgy. 2, record 1, English, - physical%20metallurgical%20engineer

La méthode de contrôle par l'émission acoustique est une méthode volumique(détection d’un signal quelle que soit la partie de la structure siège de l'émission) et dynamique(détection du signal au moment même du relâchement des contraintes). Le contrôle par l'émission acoustique s’applique aux métaux et alliages, roches, bétons, céramiques, matériaux composites. 1, record 14, French, - %C3%A9mission%20acoustique

Les superalliages, qui résistent à des températures de 800 °C à 1100 °C, voire plus pour les structures à solidification dirigée ou monocristalline, sont employés dans la fabrication d’ailettes de turbines, de chambres de combustion, etc., de réacteurs d’avions. Les plus connus dans ce domaine sont le René 77, le René 80, le DS 200(solidification dirigée), l'AMI(structure monocristalline) ainsi que le CSMX 2... Ces alliages sont également utilisés dans les turbomachines fixes, ainsi que dans les industries nucléaire et chimique. 2, record 15, French, - superalliage

Dans la cloche à vide de GE, les alliages, sous forme d’une poudre ultra-fine, sont projetés, au point de fusion, par un pistolet à plasma dont la température des gaz atteint 27 760 ° C, et la vitesse, Mach 3. Le métal en fusion est pulvérisé sous une forme prototype puis soumis à un refroidissement très rapide. On obtient ainsi une structure métallique pratiquement sans défaut et d’une dureté approchant la perfection. 1, record 17, French, - d%C3%A9p%C3%B4t%20de%20plasma%20%C3%A0%20solidification%20rapide
