Textbook Question

Chapter 2, Problem 55QTP

If you remove the layer of material ad from the part shown in Fig. 2.30d (for instance, by machining or grinding), which way will the specimen curve? (Hint: Assume that the part shown in sketch d in the figure is composed of four horizontal springs held at the ends. Thus, from the top down, you have compression, tension, compression, and tension springs.)

A cylindrical specimen of brass that has a diameter of 20 mm, a tensile modulus of 110 GPa, and a Poisson's ratio of 0.35 is pulled in tension with a force of 40, 000 N. If the deformation is totally elastic and the original length is 120 mm, what is the final length of the specimen in mm?

4. For a brass alloy, the stress at which plastic deformation begins is 345 MPa and the modulus of elasticity is 103 GPa. What is the maximum load that may be applied to a specimen with a cross-sectional area of 130 mm² without plastic deformation? b. If the original specimen length is 76 mm, what is the maximum length to which it may be stretched without causing plastic deformation?

Tensile test is a method to investigate the elasticity of a material. A test specimen is placed between two clamps and these clamps will move in opposite directions, hence straining the test specimen. This experiment will yield a stress-strain curve that shows each of the stages of the specimen for every load is applied. With an aid of sketching diagrams, describe the stages that the specimen experiences before it breaks, and relate it with the stress-strain curve. It is expected that each stage comes with a sketching of the specimen and explanation of the current stage.
