1.3.1 Hardness:
Rockwell hardness machine is used to find the hardness of the material. The Rockwell
scale is a hardness scale based on indentation hardness of a material. The Rockwell test
determines the hardness by measuring the depth of penetration of an indenter under a
large load compared to the penetration made by a preload.

2.1 Objective:
To determine the load-deflection characteristics for tension spring and to show
that deflection is proportional to 1/d4.
2.2 Apparatus:
Tension of the spring apparatus
2.3 Theory:
Spring is used to to store energy or to store the restoring force. Both spring (compression
and extension) may be encountered. The deflection of the spring depend on the load we
apply on the spring. The tension of spring is due to hooks law.
Hooks law is stated as within the elastic limit the applied force is directly proportional to
strain.
F = kx
Stress is the force applied on the unit area of the body. And the strain is the change in
length produced in the body when a force is applied on the body.
Tension springs are tightly wound closed together. The spring stretches to a specific
length when the load is applied on the spring. The tension spring is used in many ways.
The tension spring is used in many industries. The tension spring have dimension of
01mm to 26mm and can created using the cold and hot coiling process.
6|Page
Experiment no # 1
Tension spring made from a dimension of 0.1mm to 25mm and can be made of hot and
cool coiling process. When the load is applied on the spring the spring is stretched to a
specific length. And when the more load is applied the spring become more stretched and
when the load is removing from the spring the spring return to its original position.
Because the restoring force in the tension spring is remove from the spring.

5.1 Objective:
Investigation about the material of the given specimen by determining yield
Strength, ultimate tensile strength, fracture stress, modulus of elasticity,
percentage elongation and percentage area reduction.
5.2 Apparatus:
Hounsfield Tensometer
Vernier Caliper
Specimen
Elongation Gauge
Area Reduction Gauge
5.3 Theory:
The most fundamental mechanical test that can be performed on a material is the tensile
test. The tensile strength and stress and strain etc. any kind of material can be determined
by the tensile test. This can done by using the Hounsfield tonometer. Hounsfield
tonometer is a tensile testing machine which is used to determine the strength of the
material. In this experiment the material is held between the two clip. We can apply the
maximum force with the minimum effort. The material can face the force up to its fracture
point and when the force is exceed the ultimate tensile strength. At last the material can
be broken. There is a autographic drum and a magnifier glass on the other end. And also
a pointer is present on this drum which is used to mark the point on the graph when the
load is applied on it. From the graph we can observed the tensile strength of the material.

5.4.1 Stress:
Stress is defined as the force acting on unit area of the body[2]. The formula of the
stress is given as:
σ = F/A
Where,
σ is the stress
Unit:
The unit of the stress is N/m2
5.4.2 Strain:
Strain is the change produced in the shape of the body when the force is acting on the
body.
23 | P a g e
Experiment no # 1
There are some material who can bear a large amount of the force acting on it. The
ultimate tensile indicate that the maximum force that a material can withstand without
change in the shape or before elongation or pulled.[1]
The fractures for brittle and ductile material are different from each other. For brittle
material the fracture is very rapid cracking of the material when a large amount of the
stress acting on it. For ductile material, fracture is characterized by the extensive
deformation of plastic or necking. In ductile fracture, material pull a part instead of the
cracking.[3]
24 | P a g e
Experiment no # 1
5.4.7 Necking:
Necking is actually the type of the tensile deformation in which a large quantity of the
strain is disproportional localized in a very tiny area of the material. The local cross
sectional area of the material is acting as the base for the necking. Necking is the result
of the instability during the tensile deformation.
5.5 Working:
Hounsfield Tensometer works on the guideline that a power at a regular price is hooked
up to the instance that's settled immovably inside the Tensometer until the instance is
broken. We exercise the ductile burden through the use of turning the address physical
or therefore and inside the interim the drum additionally pivot which has a chart paper
wrap on it.so, the diagram known as pressure strain bend is received demonstrating the
residences of the fabric, as an instance, UTS, yield incredible and damage stress.
Obeys Hook’s law at this point which states that strain is at once proportional to the
pressure. So even as it crosses the yield factor the elastic deformation is terminated
and plastic deformation started and whilst it reaches the proportional restrict, it stopped
to obey the Hook’s regulation. And then it reaches the point at which it may contend
with the maximum pressure known as the last tensile strain. After this necking comes
25 | P a g e

into motion and because of which bypass section is decreased and duration is
increased. And then it reaches the final thing at which the fabric ultimately breaks, is
called Fracture pressure.
5.6Procedure:
1. Determine the area and length of the work piece.
2. Measure the area reduces and change in length with the initial dimensions of the
work piece.
3. Fold the graph paper on the autographic drum of the tensometer.
4. Hold the specimen between the split chuck.
5. Apply continuous load on the work piece by rotating the handle and deformation.
6. Apply the load until the work piece break into two pieces.

The specimen we use in this experiment is made up of aluminium and this material go to
ultimate tensile stress but it go to fracture point which is denoted by point P and these
might deviate from the actual values because there might be experimental or climate
changes due to which it can might happen.
