RE: Fun to know: Selecting materials in engineering
These are also properties of metals
Hardness, fracture toughness, ductility, strength, stiffness, loading and stress & strain.
I love this!
you are designing something to be used at sea, it should be corrosion resistant.
And it must also be able to resist water if it's a device or gadget.
This is a very nice and educative post. Thank you, it was nice reading this post.
I believe this post is original.

Well that's the point, of course you don't need to make everything water resistant, like materials used in computers, but if you're making a computer to be used on a boat.. then you'll need to use completely different materials.
Even some basic things could need to be redone to ensure the perfect suitability for the changing requirements.
