O my Lord! expand me my chest;
Ease my task for me; and
Remove the impediment from my speech,
So they may understand what I say.

Stress
A stress is a measure of the force in a
component relative to the cross-sectional
area over which the force is applied.
= Force per unit area

Strain
Strain is a measure of deformation (either elastic or
permanent).
= Change in length per unit original length

Tensile Test
The most common way to assess the mechanical
property of a material (strength and ductility) is the
tensile test which measures the resistance of material to
a static or slowly applied force.

Sequence of Events of a Tensile-
Test Specimen
(a) Early stage of necking
(b) Small voids begin to form within the necked region;
(c) Voids coalesce, producing an internal crack;
(d) Rest of the cross-section begins to fail at the periphery,
by shearing
(e) Final fracture surfaces, known as cup- (top fracture
surface) and cone- (bottom surface) fracture.

Elastic Deformation
Associated with stretching
but not breaking the
chemical bonds between
atoms in a solid


Elastic deformation is
recovered immediately
upon unloading.
LOAD
UNLOAD
Institute of Air Safety-PAF
TI-2-SJ
Plastic Deformation
Atoms change neighbors,
returning to a stable
configuration with new
neighbors after the
dislocation has passed.


Plastic deformation is not
recovered upon unloading
and is therefore
permanent.

Brittle
It is opposite to ductility.
Brittle materials don't change
shape readily under load.
Normally they fail with little or
no warning.

causes some material under
stress to deform slowly but
progressively over a period
of time.

It is Time-dependent

Malleability
Malleability is that property of a material that
enable it to undergo great change in shape
without rupture under compressive stress.

For example, copper, aluminum, or wrought
iron being hammered into various shapes or
steel being rolled into structural shapes or
sheets
