Problem: Steels were used having DBTT's just below
room temperature.
Your task :
• On the 14th of April in the year 1912, the R.M.S. Titanic was on its way from Southampton, England to
New York, United States when it collided with a massive iceberg. Of the 2200 passengers and crew that
were aboard, only 705 survived. When the Titanic struck the iceberg, the hull'plates did not deform, as
they should have. Instead, they fractured! The investigation shows that:
• The water temperature was below freezing
• The Titanic was traveling at a high speed on impact with the iceberg
• The hull steel contained high levels of sulfur.
From the statement above,
(i)Explain why the titanic was failed catastrophically
(ii)Determine the suitable laboratory testing for the failure part.
(iii)Explain how to characterize the failure part.
(iv)Recommend the suitable materials for the ship that will travel at different extreme temperatures.
Justify your answer.
