Auteur : Office québécois de la langue française,Définition
A value designed for comparing the properties of a steel with those of a standard steel in order to determine its relative merits. The figure used for the comparison is termed the figure of merit, merit number, or quality figure. The formulae are based on the assumption that, under the same conditions the ductility decreases as the strength increases, and vice versa. This assumption is only approximately true, and applies only within certain ranges, but the values obtained are sufficiently accurate for most purposes.
