    • 6 Pages

    Out of the three materials tested, the steel 1045 exhibited the most elastic properties, with it being able to deform elastically for a greater amount of stress than for the other specimens, as indicated by its stress-strain curve as shown in figure 1, and further supported by it having the highest modulus of elasticity of all three specimens, as shown in table 2. The mild steel specimen had the second greatest modulus of elasticity, and the aluminium specimen had the lowest modulus of…

    The foundation of Materials Science lies in characterization of a material’s properties. Among those properties the greatest interest lies in the strength of materials, being the most basic requirement for any kind of construction. This lab aims first to describe the strength of 1045 annealed and cold-rolled steel, 2024-T4 aluminum, and cast iron through tensile testing. This includes characterization of yield strengths, modulus of elasticity, ultimate tensile strength, and fracture strength for each material. An emphasis is placed on elastic-plastic deformation in terms of ductility and how temperature and fatigue can affect this transition. Elastic and plastic…

    To be able to decide on what kind of material to choose for product design, there are some critical characteristics you must consider in choosing a material prior to manufacturing. Characteristics such as material strength and flexibility are two tests that have been done on common materials for architects and engineers to reference during the design process. The purpose of this lab is to produce an elastic modulus of a material, and a predicted yield strength. Stress and strain data will be produced through tensile testing and cantilever beam testing.…

    Strengthening of Metals

    • 3 Pages

    • For example, the world’s strongest structural material (with some ductility) is steel piano wire. It combines all four strengthening mechanisms, and can have a yield strength of 500,000 psi. One wire, 0.1” in diameter, can hold up a 4,000 lb Ford Explorer. STRAIN HARDENING • Ductile material becomes harder and stronger as it is plastically deformed • The dislocation density – expressed as total number dislocation length per unit volume – mm/mm3 increases from 105 to 106 mm-2 for a heat treated metal to 109 to 1010 mm-2 for a heavily deformed metal. – Dislocation strain field interactions…

    Strength Analysis

    Throughout my life, I have faced with many challenges. From those challenges, I have come to learn that life is testing and forcing me to build more positive characteristics to become stronger each day. Hence, I can be ready to deal with more obstacles in my future career as an international tax accountant. According to The Clifton Strengths Finder assessment, my three strengths are “responsible”, which I demonstrated when I worked as a resident assistant at Skagit Valley College, “belief- oriented” as I showed in my core principle that hard work is the key to success, and “active”, due to the desire to turn my dream of coming to America into reality.…

    Fig. 4 shows that specimens subjected to minor axis bending failed at considerably lower load than those subjected to major axis bending. Rate of reduction of ultimate load is more pronounced in the case of minor axis bending. For example, the rate of reduction of ultimate load for S500 specimen, when e/xo increases from 0 to 2.8, is 5.7% and 56% for the specimen subjected to major axis bending and minor axis bending respectively. The corresponding rate of reduction of strength for S1100 specimens are 6.15% and 23.8% respectively. At larger eccentricity ratios (from 1.4 to 2.1), the curves become flatter…

D. Naiju, K. Annamalai, Siva Prasad Darla and Y. Murali Krishna Abstract—This work presents the results of a study carried out to determine the sliding wear behavior and its effect on the process parameters of components manufactured by direct metal laser sintering (DMLS). A standard procedure and specimen had been used in the present study to find the wear behavior. Using Taguchi’s experimental technique, an orthogonal array of modified L8 had been developed.…

    The piezoresistive effect is given by      (1 2 )    R R (1) where  is the resistivity of the piezoresistor,  depends on the doping concentration of the piezoresistors, ν is the Poisson’s ratio and  is the mechanical strain induced in the diaphragm. The first part of the left hand side of equation 1 describes the piezoresistive effect and the second part defines the geometric effect. For piezoresistive materials like polysilicon, the piezoresistive effect dominates over geometric effect, so the second part of Equation 1 is neglected and the linear piezoresistive effect is stated by the superposition of the longitudinal and the transverse piezoresistive effect with the stress components l in longitudinal and  t in transverse direction.…
