OBJECTIVES

To find and study the mechanical properties

of materials and compare them by plotting

the graph.

Materials are -:

Brass

Mild steel

Aluminium

TYPES OF MECHANICAL

PROPERTIES

Tensile strength->it is the maximum stress that a material

can withstand while being stretched or pulled before failing

or breaking. Tensile strength is the opposite of compressive

strength.

Hardness ->it is a measure of how resistant solid matter is

to various kinds of permanent shape change when a force is

applied.

CONT…

Ductility-> It is a solid material's ability to deform under

tensile stress; this is often characterized by the material's

ability to be streched.

Young's modulus-> It is defined as the ratio of the stress

along an axis over the strain along that axis in the range of

stress in which Hooke's law holds.

WORK PLAN

We will take these three materials, measure their mechanical properties using respective instrument as mentioned above.

We will plot the graph of properties these materials and do their compare their strength.

We will study the importance of each material and its importance in different fields manufacturing industries.

Tensile Test

Tension test is carried out; to obtain the stress-

strain

diagram, to determine the tensile properties and

hence to get valuable information about the

mechanical behavior and the engineering

performance of the material. The major

parameters

that describe the stress-strain

Curve obtained during the tension test are the

I. Tensile strength (UTS)

II. Yield strength

III. Elastic modulus (E)

IV. Toughness

V. Ductility

PROPERTIES OBTAINED FROM TENSILE TEST

Young's Modulus: This is the slope of the linear portion of the stress-strain curve, it is usually specific to each material; a constant, known value.

Ultimate Tensile Strength: This is the highest value of stress on the stress-strain curve.

Ductility: It is the measure of the plastic deformation that has been sustained at fracture point.

7.1 WHY DO WE COMPARE?

28

•Allows trends to be identified and plotted.

•To determine how are results might effect real life

applications.

•To develop a standard, with which to compare others.

•It allows us to predict what might happen in later

experiments (e.g. What a combination of the materials

might exhibit).

OUR RESULTS

7.3 INTERPRETATION

The three metals behaved in very different

ways.

Aluminium was the softest, more ductile of the

three samples.

Brass behaved in a less ductile manner.

Order of toughness as obtained from graph:

Mild Steel < Aluminium < Brass

The ultimate tensile strength (UTS) varied

greatly between metals.30

It is clear from the graph that....

7.4 APPLICATION- ALUMINIUM

Low energy plastic deformation.

Low Density- Lightweight.

Highly recyclable.

7.4 Application- Brass

• Relatively Low Density.

• Higher elastic/plastic limit than aluminium, however still relatively low- malleable.

• Corrosive/tarnish resistant due to its zinc content.

• Decorative.
