Chapter 6 Flashcards
(43 cards)
brittleness
tendency to fracture when even a small load is applied
ductility
how much a material can deform without sustaining internal damage
creep
deformation of a material at elevated temperatures
elasticity
ability of a material to return to its original shape after some deformation
plasticity
ability of a material to remain deformed after an external force is removed
fatigue
weakening of a material due to repeated cyclic load
hardness
ability of a material to resist permanent (plastic) change in shape
resilience
ability to absorb energy and resist impact load
stiffness
ability of a material to resist additional deformation when loading continues
toughness
ability of a material to resist fracture
tensile test
stretches a sample of a material in a specific form with a decreased diameter in the middle for 2in
engineering stress
stress = F/A(o)
F = force
A(o) = original cross-sectional area
engineering strain
strain = (l(i) - l(o)) / l(o)
l(o) = original length
l(i) = instantaneous length
shear
type of deformation that results in stress and strain = apply force in opposite directions to top and bottom of an object parallel to the surface
shear strain
strain = alpha + beta
alpha = angle between ground and bottom surface
beta = angle between z-axis and side of material
shear stress
stress = F/A(o)
torsion
occurs when twisting a material
when is poissons ratio applied? (v)
for elastically behaving materials - elongation in z-direction is proportional to force acting in the z-direction - causing contraction of the material in x and y directions
what strain can most materials handle elastically
0.005 or 0.05%
what happens above a strain of 0.005?
atomic bonds permanently deform creating permanent deformation
what is the suggested value for yield stress?
0.002 or 0.02%
yielding
point of transition from elastic to plastic deformation
stress at yielding
yield stress
how to find yield stress from graph
find initial slope (m) then draw a line with that slope starting at 0.002 or 0.005 on x-axis and find intersection
