    Study Notes

    Book Information

    • Title: Mechanical Metallurgy, SI Metric Edition
    • Author: George E. Dieter, University of Maryland
    • Adaptation by: David Bacon, Professor of Materials Science, University of Liverpool
    • Publisher: McGraw-Hill Book Company

    Working Stress and Safety Factors

    • Working stress (aw) is crucial for safety in engineering applications.
    • For ductile metals, aw is based on yield strength (ao); for brittle metals, it is based on ultimate tensile strength (au).
    • Calculated as:
      • aw = ao / No or aw = au / Nu
    • Factors of safety (No, Nu) are crucial and depend on possible failure consequences and equipment type.
    • Military equipment may have lower safety factors compared to commercial equipment due to weight constraints.
    • Static loading in buildings has a lower factor of safety than dynamic loading in machinery.

    Concepts of Stress

    • Stress is defined as force per unit area, indicating how forces act on a material.
    • External forces on a body can be classified as surface forces (e.g., pressure) and body forces (e.g., gravity).
    • Actual stress distribution may vary and not be uniform.

    Finite Element Method (FEM)

    • FEM simplifies complex problems through the use of element meshes for analysis.
    • Elements can be one-dimensional, two-dimensional, or three-dimensional, helping to model various situations.
    • Important calculations involve stiffness matrices and displacement matrices to determine stress at nodal points.
    • Input data preparation is critical, including element topology and node coordinates.

    Stress and Strain Relationships

    • Engineering stress can be computed from maximum load and area at maximum load.
      • Example: Engineering stress at maximum load = 796 MPa
    • True fracture stress can be calculated, providing insights into material performance under loading.
      • Example: True fracture stress = 891 MPa
    • Strain at fracture can be determined using logarithmic calculations:
      • True strain at fracture = 0.365
      • Engineering strain can be derived from true strain using exponential relationships.

    Yield Criteria for Ductile Metals

    • Yield criteria assess conditions leading to plastic yielding under various stress combinations.
    • Yielding in uniaxial loading begins at yield stress (ao).
    • Complex stress states relate to principal stresses, but yield prediction involves empirical relationships.
    • Hydrostatic pressure does not induce yielding, indicating that the deviator stress is key in yielding behavior for isotropic materials.
    • Yield criteria should be invariant, regardless of coordinate choices, ensuring consistent predictions across different axes.
