The initial straight line in the stress-strain diagram indicates a linear and proportional relationship between stress and strain. This means that strain increases proportionally with the applied stress, following Hooke's law within that range. Signup and view all the answers

What happens to the stress-strain curve after the proportionality limit?

After the proportionality limit, the stress-strain curve deviates from linearity, indicating that strain increases more rapidly than stress. This is the onset of non-linear behavior, where the material starts to behave less predictably. Signup and view all the answers

Apart from yielding, what happens to a test specimen when it is stretched?

Apart from yielding, a test specimen undergoes lateral contraction when stretched, meaning its cross-sectional area decreases. Signup and view all the answers

What is the reason for the reduction in load after the UTS?

The reduction in load after the UTS is not due to a loss in stress but rather a decrease in the cross-sectional area of the bar. As the material necks down, the area carrying the load decreases, leading to a lower overall load. Signup and view all the answers

Study Notes

Subspaces

A subspace is a vector space that's a subset of another vector space.
For a subset to be a subspace, it must satisfy three properties:
- Contains the zero vector (additive identity).
- Closed under addition: If u and v are in the subspace, then u + v is also in the subspace.
- Closed under scalar multiplication: If a is a scalar and u is in the subspace, then au is also in the subspace.
Special examples of subspaces include the zero vector set and the entire vector space itself.
A subspace is formed by generalizing lines and planes that pass through the origin.

OPC Standard

OPC (Open Platform Communication) is a standard that allows different systems to communicate.
It enables the automation of different machines.
OPC's purpose in 1996 was to standardize PLC protocols (e.g., Modbus, Profibus) to allow HMI/SCADA systems to interact with various systems via a converter.
OPC utilizes OLE (Object Linking and Embedding) for process control.
OPC UA (Unified Architecture) is a future-proof, scalable, and extensible open-platform technology developed to address challenges in service-oriented manufacturing systems.
OPC is platform-independent, enabling cross-system use.

Normal Stress and Strain

Normal Stress ($\sigma$):
- Acts perpendicular to the cut surface.
- Can be tensile (stretching) or compressive (squeezing).
- Calculated as $\sigma = F/A$ (force divided by area), where the stress is uniformly distributed, and the force acts at the centroid of the cross-section.
Normal Strain ($\epsilon$):
- $\epsilon = \sigma/L$ (stress divided by length).
Uniaxial Stress and Strain:
- Homogeneous materials experience uniform stress and strain.
Moments ($M_x$, $M_y$):
- Equal to the corresponding moments of uniformly distributed stresses, $M_x = P \bar{y}$, $M_y = -P \bar{x}$.

Stress-Strain Diagram

The initial linear portion of the stress-strain diagram indicates a proportional relationship between stress and strain.
Beyond the proportionality limit, the relationship is no longer linear.
The slope of the initial linear portion is the modulus of elasticity.
Yielding occurs when significant elongation/plastic deformation happens without an increase in stress.
The yield point marks the start of yielding.
Ultimate tensile stress represents the maximum value on the stress-strain diagram.
Beyond the ultimate tensile stress, necking occurs, with a reduction in the specimen's cross-sectional area and a decrease in load.
A true stress-strain curve is obtained by using the actual cross-sectional area at the narrowest part of the neck when calculating stress.
Ductility is a material's ability to deform plastically in tension.
Brittleness means failure at low values of strain in tension.

Creep

Creep is an increase in strain over time under constant load.

Poisson's Ratio

Poisson's ratio ($\nu$) is the negative ratio of lateral strain to axial strain: $\nu = -\epsilon’/\epsilon$.
It is dimensionless and constant only in the linearly elastic range.
It applies to homogeneous and isotropic materials.

Shear Stress and Strain

Shear Stress:
- Acts parallel to the cut surface.
- Equal and opposite shear stresses act on opposite parallel faces.
- Causes a change in shape (distortion) and results in shear strain (measured in radians).
- Hooke's Law for Shear: $\tau = G \gamma$, where G is the shear modulus.
Shear Strain:
- The angular distortion.
The relationship between moduli of elasticity in tension and shear is given by $ G = \frac{E}{2(1+\nu)}$.

Shear Forces and Bending Moments

Shear Force:
- Changes at a rate equal to the negative of the distributed load intensity ($\frac{dV}{dx} = - q$).
- Maximum occurs at the end of the beam closest to the concentrated load.
Bending Moment:
- Changes at a rate equal to the shear force ($\frac{dM}{dx} = V$).
- Maximum occurs under the concentrated load.

Pure Bending and Non-Uniform Bending

Pure bending occurs with a constant bending moment and zero shear force.

Properties of Fluids

Fluids deform continuously under any shearing force.
Liquids have a definite volume and free surface, and are nearly incompressible.
Gases fill the available volume and are compressible.

Analogue and Digital Signals

Analogue Signals: Can take on any value of a particular quantity.
Digital Signals: Have discrete, stepped or pulsed values.

Open PLCs

Open PLCs can be programmed with different software (open-source).
They often use higher-level programming languages like C++ for greater flexibility and options, compared to traditional methods like function block diagrams.

Pressure Sensors, Transducers & Transmitters

Devices to measure pressure, using voltage or current signals for the quantity being measured.
