Lab 2 Tensile Test Abstract The aim behind this experiment was to put Mild steel‚ copper and aluminium through a tensile test‚ with Mild steel being tabulated and graphed to show its properties and how they could be used in the real world. Introduction/Theory Tensile testing is one of the most simple and widely used materiel tests available. It is used to characterize the mechanical properties of the material and has direct implications on the design and construction of the end product. This test

ABSTARCT: Tensile tests are fundamental for understanding properties of different materials‚ and how they will behave under load. These properties can be used for design and analysis of engineering structures‚ and for developing new Materials that better suit a specified use. This lab tested two materials mild steel and cast iron. The data from each test was used to determine valuable material properties such as ultimate tensile strength‚ modulus of elasticity‚ and yield strength. Other calculated

The Tensile Behaviour of Common Engineering Polymers Abstract The mechanical properties of polymers vary significantly from polymer to polymer as a result of atomic structures and bond strength. The tensile properties of representative samples from the common polymer were tested and evaluated in this experiment. This laboratory experiment is also designed to demonstrate the procedure used for obtaining mechanical properties as modulus of elasticity‚ yield strength‚ ultimate tensile strength

STRENGTH OF MATERIAL TENSILE TESTING OF METALS STRENGTH OF MATERIAL TENSILE TESTING OF METALS OBJECTIVE : Tension test is carried out; to obtain the stress-strain diagram‚ to determine the tensile properties and hence to get valuable information about the mechanical behavior and the engineering performance of the material… INTRODUCTION: A tensile test‚ also known as a tension test‚ tests a material’s strength. It’s a mechanical

Yield Strength As we apply a low level of stress to a material; the material initially exhibits elastic deformation. In this region the strain that develops is completely and quickly recovered when the applied stress is removed. However‚ as we continue to increase the applied stress the material begins to exhibit both elastic and plastic deformation. The critical stress value needed to initiate plastic deformation is defined as the elastic limit of the material. In metallic materials‚ this is usually

Griffith criterion‚ tensile strength of brittle materials is theoretical 1/8 of the compressive strength. Typically‚ tensile strength of rock materials is about 1/10 to 1/8 of the compressive strength. Hence‚ rock fails easily under tension. In design‚ rock should be subjected to minimum tensile stress. Several methods are commonly used to test the tensile strength of rocks: 1. Direct tensile test: Metal caps are cemented to the end-surfaces of the samples so that tensile load can be applied
