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.
