Show the typical Stress versus Strain curve for the following materials, and define the materials properties
"The stress-strain curve can be used to read off the structural load ability of materials. For many materials,
including metals, their loading bearing capability is one of the most important material properties".
by reference to the diagram:
a) Hammer head is made from hardened tool steel
b) Smelter is made from refractory ceramic
c) Cable is made from pure copper
d) Box is made from polypropylene
Why is it important for mechanical engineers to understand construction safety? What important aspects must be considered to achieve a safe construction environment?
The performance
of a structural element is determined by
the properties of the material
the geometry
functional requirements
the microstructure

- When an external force acts on a body, the body tends to undergo some deformation. If the external force is removed and the body comes back to its origin shape and size, the body is known as elastic body. This property, by virtue of which certain materials return back to their original position after the removal of the external force, is called elasticity. We can explain these behaviours using following elastic constants. Young’s modulus or Modulus of elasticity (E) Shear modulus or Modulus of Rigidity (G) Bulk modulus (K) You are required to submit a report explaining these elastic constants and explaining the relations between these elastic constants. (You can use the relation with Poisson’s Ratio and get the relation between E, G and K.)arrow_forwardSeveral applications are listed below.
