Chapter 1, Problem 1.5.2P

A tensile test was performed on a metal specimen having a circular cross section with a diameter of 1 2 inch. The gage length (the length over which the elongation is measured) is 2 inches. For a load 13.5 kips, the elongation was 4.66 × 10 3 inches. If the load is assumed to be within the linear elastic rang: of the material, determine the modulus of elasticity.

The (G-E) diagram obtained in the tensile test performed on a metal sample with a diameter of 16 mm is as follows. The loads at points A, B and C and the elongation measured on l. 16 cm gauge length were determined as follows: B A B C Load (kgf) 4800 8400 7200 Elongation (mm) 0.192 28.8 38.4 a) Calculate the proportionality limit, modulus of elasticity, tensile strength, maximum uniform elongation, and contraction-elongation ratio of the metal. b) Since the measured diameter of the metal at break is 12 mm, find the constriction ratio and the actual stress at break.
The elastic portion of the tension stress-strain diagram for an aluminum alloy is shown in the figure. The specimen used for the test has a gauge length of 2 in. and a diameter of 0.5 in. If the applied load is 10 kip, determine the new diameter of the specimen. The shear modulus is G al =3.811032 ksi
1.5-7 The data shown in the table were obtained from a tensile test of a metal specimen with a rectangular cross section of 0.2 in.² in area and a gage length (the length over which the elongation is measured) of 2.000 inches. a. Generate a table of stress and strain values. b. Plot these values and draw a best-fit line to obtain a stress-strain curve. c. Determine the modulus of elasticity from the slope of the linear portion of the curve.
