Hey all,
Well im gearing up for my senior project, which is basically a performance comparison of 4130 vs 1020 DOM steel tubing in the construction of space frames for ground vehicles. Here are some pictures of a dent test i am going to conduct, this is a preliminary test, so its not all aligned yet. But intersting results so far...These are all 4130N 1.25"0.065wall
Basic Dent...125J of enery i believe...
Same Energy, TIG weld with no filler
Same Energy, TIG weld, filler
Kinda makes ya wonder...
