Mechanical Properties of Metals How do metals respond to external loads? Stress and Strain Tension Compression Shear Torsion Elastic deformation
Plastic Deformation Yield Strength Tensile Strength Ductility Toughness Hardness
Chapter 6 Outline
Not tested: true stress-true stain relationships, resilience, details of the different types of hardness tests, variability of material properties
Introduction
Stress,

(MPa)
Strain, ε (mm / mm)
Strain (For Tension and Compression)
Shear and Torsion
F is applied parallel to upper and lower faces each having area A 0.
Shear Torsion
Stress-Strain Behavior (Tension)
Elastic Plastic
Stress
Strain
Elastic deformation
Reversible:
( For small strains) Stress removed material returns to original size
Plastic deformation
Irreversible: Stress removed material does not return to original dimensions.
E = Young's modulus or modulus of elasticity (same units as σ, N/m 2 or Pa)
Gives Hooke's law for Tensile Stress
Stress
Strain
Load
Slope = modulus of elasticity E
Unload
Higher E → higher “stiffness”
Chapter 2: Potentials and Force
High modulus
Low modulus
F= (sign) dV/dr

Shear stress to shear strain:
τ = G γ,
γ = tanθ = ∆y / z (^) o
G is Shear Modulus (Units: N/m 2 )
Plastic deformation (Tension)
Plastic deformation:
Elastic Plastic
Stress
Strain Yield strength: σy Permanent strain= 0.
Yield point: P Where strain deviates from being proportional to stress (the proportional limit)
A measure of resistance to plastic deformation
P
σy
Tensile strength = max. stress (~ 100 - 1000 MPa)
If stress maintained specimen will break
Fracture Strength
Stress, “Necking”
σ
Strain, ε
Yield stress, σy , usually more important than tensile strength. Once yield stress has been passed, structure has deformed beyond acceptable limits.
