Material Properties under Load

Properties that describe the behavior of materials subjected to different types of loads include stress, strain, ductility, brittleness, stiffness, and Poisson's ratio.

Types of Loading

Static loading involves a force applied slowly to an assembly or object.
Cyclic loading causes variation in the magnitude and sometimes in the sense of the internal forces.

Stress and Strain

Unit of stress is typically measured in pascals (Pa) or pounds per square inch (psi).
Stress is the intensity of internal forces defined as the force per unit area.
Strain is defined as the deformation of a material per unit length.

Material Strength

The maximum stress that a material can resist is known as its strength.
Stress measures the internal resistance of a material to external forces.

Material Properties

Poisson's ratio represents the lateral strain response to a longitudinal tensile load.
Ductility measures the ability of a material to be deformed without breaking.
Brittleness refers to the tendency of a material to break or shatter without deformation.
Hardness measures the resistance to any indentation or scratch caused by any type of load.
Stiffness measures the resistance of a material to deformation under load.

Yield and Proof Stress

Yield or proof stress represents the maximum stress that a material can withstand without undergoing permanent deformation.
Shear stress is parallel to the section and occurs when the force is applied parallel to the surface.

Test your knowledge of the mechanical properties of engineering materials, including their behavior under static, dynamic, and repeated loads. This quiz covers topics such as types of loading and basic material properties.
