    Study Notes

    Mechanical Properties

    • Describe the response of a material to external applied stress of different nature, including compressive, flexural, shear, and torsion.
    • There are two types of deformation: elastic (reversible and temporary) and plastic (irreversible and permanent).

    Types of Deformation

    • Elastic deformation: temporary and reversible, where the material returns to its original shape once the load is removed.
    • Plastic deformation: permanent and irreversible, where the material does not return to its original shape once the load is removed.

    Mechanical Properties Dependence

    • Mechanical properties depend on the way they are measured.
    • Different testing methods can yield different results.

    Tensile Strength Test

    • A test used to measure the mechanical properties of a material.
    • The test measures the response of a material to an external applied stress.

    Plastic Deformation

    • Occurs when the material undergoes permanent deformation.
    • Can be measured by the stress-strain curve, where the yield strength is the stress at which the material first suffers permanent deformation.
    • The ultimate tensile strength (σTS) is the maximum stress that a material can withstand before breaking.

    Ultimate Tensile Strength

    • Definition: the capability of a material to bear applied forces without breaking and without permanent deformation.
    • Characteristic quantities: yield strength (σy) and ultimate tensile strength (σTS).

    Mechanical Resistance (Strength)

    • Definition: the capability of a material to bear applied forces without breaking and without permanent deformation.
    • Metals have a very high tensile strength, while fragile materials have a low tensile strength but a good compression strength.

    Ductility

    • Definition: the capability of a material to undergo plastic deformation before rupture.
    • Can be measured by the elongation (ε) and reduction of area (Z%) of a material.
    • Ductility is a measure of a material's ability to be plastically deformed without breaking.

    Brittle vs Ductile

    • Brittle materials: have a low ductility and tend to break or shatter when subjected to stress.
    • Ductile materials: have a high ductility and can be plastically deformed without breaking.

    Mechanical Characteristics

    • Resistance: the ability of a material to withstand external forces without breaking.
    • Mechanical strength: the ability of a material to withstand external forces without permanent deformation.
    • Ductility: the ability of a material to undergo plastic deformation before rupture.
