Work Example
Problem 6.3
• Metals: occurs when noticeable necking starts.
• Ceramics: occurs when crack propagation starts.
• Polymers: occurs when polymer backbones are
aligned and about to break.

• Note: %AR and %EL are often comparable.
--Reason: crystal slip does not change material volume.
--%AR > %EL possible if internal voids form in neck.

TOUGHNESS
• Energy to break a unit volume of material
• Approximate by the area under the stress-strain
curve.

EXAMPLE PROBLEM 6.4
A cylindrical specimen of steel having an original diameter of
12.8mm (0.505 in) is tensile tested to fracture and found to have
an engineering fracture strength f of 460 MPa (67,000 psi). If its
cross-sectional diameter at fracture is 10.7mm (0.422 in).
Determine:
a) The ductility in terms of percent reduction in area
b) The true stress at fracture
Chapter 6- 22
HARDENING
• An increase in y due to plastic deformation.
• Curve fit to the stress-strain response:
strain
K
K and n can be found from tables or tensile tests
Chapter 6- 22
HARDNESS
• Resistance to permanently indenting the surface.
• Large hardness means:
--resistance to plastic deformation or cracking in
compression.
--better wear properties.

HARDNESS and TENSILE
STRENGTH
There is a linear relation between the tensile strength and
hardness of a metal (especially for cast iron, steel and brass)
For most steels:
TS ( MPa)  3.45 HB
TS ( psi)  500 HB

SUMMARY
• Stress and strain: These are size-independent
measures of load and displacement, respectively.
• Elastic behavior: This reversible behavior often
shows a linear relation between stress and strain.
To minimize deformation, select a material with a
large elastic modulus (E or G).
• Plastic behavior: This permanent deformation
behavior occurs when the tensile (or compressive)
uniaxial stress reaches y.
• Toughness: The energy needed to break a unit
volume of material.
• Ductility: The plastic strain at failure.
Note: For materials selection cases related to
mechanical behavior, see slides 22-4 to 22-10.
