Mechanical Properties of Solids

There are three types of matter- solid, liquid and gas. Out of them, solids have a rigid shaped and size. The intermolecular forces of attractions in solids are greatest. Mechanical properties are the physical properties of a material which it shows, when it is provided with certain amount of force or load. These properties are to be kept in mind for various purposes. When a force is applied to an object, the object may or may not get deformed depending upon its elastic property. But every time the object develops a restoring force against the force applied. This is commonly known as stress. If the object changes its dimensions due to the force applied it develops strain ( which is the ratio of change in dimension to the original dimension).

1. (a) (b) (c) Explain the difference between Griffith and Irwin's approach to determine the critical stress in cracks for fast fracture in engineering materials. Why are dislocations necessary for explaining the plasticity typically seen for crystalline materials? A thin sheet of aluminium alloy of width 200mm and 200 mm long with an internal crack of 80mm is subjected to an applied stress of 130MPa perpendicular to the crack plane. Apply Irwin's Approach for plasticity correction to find the plastic zone size of the crack tip, and hence find the stress intensity factor at the crack tip (for 2 iterations). The yield strength of aluminium alloy is 380MPa. The stress intensity factor K₁ is given by K₁=Y σ (na)¹/² where a is the crack length and is the applied stress. Note that the geometric correction factor graph and the relevant equations are provided in the Appendix.
