Elastic behavior: When loads are small, how much deformation occurs? What materials deform least? Plastic behavior: At what point does permanent deformation occur? What materials are most resistant to permanent deformation? Toughness and ductility: What are they and how do we measure them? AMSE 205 Spring 2016 Chapter 8-1

28 Hardness Resistance to permanently indenting the surface.

31 Design or Safety Factors Design uncertainties mean we do not push the limit. Factor of safety, N Often N is between 1.2 and 4 Example: Calculate a diameter, d, to ensure that yield does not occur in the 1045 carbon steel rod below. Use a factor of safety of 5. d plain carbon steel: σ y = 310 MPa TS = 565 MPa Lo d = m = 6.7 cm F = 220,000N AMSE 205 Spring 2016 Chapter 8-31

32 Summary Stress and strain: These are size-independent measures of load and displacement, respectively. Elastic behavior: This reversible behavior often shows a linear relation between stress and strain. To minimize deformation, select a material with a large elastic modulus (E or G). Plastic behavior: This permanent deformation behavior occurs when the tensile (or compressive) uniaxial stress reaches σ y. Toughness: The energy needed to break a unit volume of material. Ductility: The plastic strain at failure. AMSE 205 Spring 2016 Chapter 8-32
