Bond {SASmixed}

Strengths of metal bonds

Description

The Bond data frame has 21 rows and 3 columns of data on the strength required to break metal bonds according to the metal and the ingot.

Format

This data frame contains the following columns:

pressure

a numeric vector of pressures required to break the bond

Metal

a factor with levels c, i and n indicating the metal involved (copper, iron or nickel).

Ingot

an ordered factor indicating the ingot of the composition material.
