There is a mechanical property of metals that most of the

Wrong.
Another idiot who calls himself an engineer who has never heard of
Timoshenko's Strength of Materials.
The properties of a homogenious rod are well, homogenious.
One can see you have never been in company where such big words are
used, Krueger. It is spelt like it is said, "homogenous" or if you want
to be pedantic, "homogeneous". There is no "i" in the word, and no "i"
sound in pronouncing it.
The difference between homogenous and homogeneous is far from
pedantic. Homogenous means having structural homology due to
homogenetics. Of course that little extra letter no more prevents
idiots from confusing them that does the extra "i" prevent them from
confusing homoiousian from homoousian, a difference which men have
died over.
