The reason for plastic strain in metals at temperature below half of melting temperature.
Answer to Problem 1CQ
The motion of dislocation is the main reason for plastic strain in metals at temperature below half of melting temperature.
Explanation of Solution
Plastic strain is the strain obtained in material when the material is stretched beyond its elastic limit. Plastic strain is the permanent strain as material do not regains its original shape after the removal of force. The unloading curve on stress-strain curve follows a very different path from its original one.
The defects present in crystalline metals are the main reason for the plastic strain in them. The dislocations formed in metals during the solidification are one of the defects in it. In crystalline metals the motion of dislocation is the main reason for plastic strain in metals at temperature below half of melting temperature.
Conclusion:
Thus, motion of dislocation is the main reason for plastic strain in metals at temperature below half of melting temperature.

- A copper rod is deformed using a uniaxial tensile force of 16000 N. Deformation continues until sufficient strain hardening has occurred such that the applied force is too small to allow further deformation. After deformation, the rod has a diameter of 0.01 m and a length of 1.5 m. Assume that copper follows the strain hardening lawwith K of 310 MPa and n=0.54 Please calculate the true strain after the deformation ?arrow_forwardA cylindrical specimen of cold-worked steel has a Brinell hardness of 240. If the specimen remained cylindrical during deformation and its original radius was 11.8 mm, determine its radius after deformation. For steel, the dependence of tensile strength on percent cold work is shown in Animated Figure 7.19b. i mmarrow_forwardA bronze rod is rigidly attached between an aluminum rod and a steel rod as shown in the figure below. Axial loads are applied at the positions indicated. a) Find the maximum value of P that will not exceed a stress in steel of 140 MPa, in bronze of 100 MPa, or in aluminum of 90 MPa. b) Determine the deformation of the bronze rod if the value of P is 22.50 KN.

Decreasing the difference between the maximum and minimum stress values, as this effects the stress concentration factor b. Decreasing the temperature below the brittle-ductile transition temperature, to make it harder C. Polishing to reduce surface defects Od.
