Learning Objective:
Students should be able: Describe the stress and strain diagram. Differentiate between elastic and plastic deformation. Define the tensile strength, modulus of elasticity, ductility. Describe the hardness and toughness properties
Physical Properties
Physical properties can be observed or measured without changing the composition of matter. Physical properties are used to observe and describe matter. Physical properties include: appearance, texture, color, odor, melting point, boiling point, density, electrical conductivity, coefficient of thermal expansion. and many others.
Mechanical Properties
Properties obtain from a response or deformation due to an applied load or force. Example: Strength, hardness, toughness, elasticity, plasticity, brittleness, and ductility and malleability

These diagrams are used to determine how material will react under a certain load
Plastic Range: there is permanent deformation after load is removed Yield point is the starting point of this range and it also defines the materials yield strength Yield strength is an important failure criterion Ultimate strength: the largest stress the material can bear Strain at fracture gives ductility.
Elastic Deformation
1. Initial 2. Small load
bonds stretch return to initial
3. Unload

Elastic means reversible!
Materials that undergo large strains before failure are classified as ductile. Ductile materials include mild steel, aluminum and some of its alloys, copper, magnesium, lead, molybdenum, nickel, brass, bronze, nylon, teflon and many others

Hardness
Resistance to permanently indenting the surface. Large hardness means:
--resistance to plastic deformation or cracking in compression. --better wear properties.

Mohrs Scale
Hardness: Rockwell
a hardness measurement based on the net increase in depth of impression as a load is applied. Hardness numbers have no units and are commonly given in the R, L, M, E and K scales. The higher the number in each of the scales means the harder the material.
Indenter type: steel ball or a spherical diamondtipped cone of 120 angle and 0.2 mm tip radius, called Brale
HR = E - e
See table..
Hardness: Brinell
Brinell hardness is determined by forcing a hard steel or carbide sphere of a specified diameter under a specified load into the surface of a material and measuring the diameter of the indentation left after the test. The Brinell hardness number, or simply the Brinell number, is obtained by dividing the load used, in kilograms, by the actual surface area of the indentation, in square millimeters. The result is a pressure measurement, but the units are rarely stated
Hardness: Vickers
the surface is subjected to a standard pressure for a standard length of time by means of a pyramid-shaped diamond. The diagonal of the resulting indention is measured under a microscope . For very hard surfaces
HV = 2Fsin 136o/2 d2
HV = 1.854(F/d2)
Hardness: Knoop
Indenter: diamond indenter in the shape of an elongated four-sided pyramid.

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 sy. Toughness: The energy needed to break a unit volume of material. Ductility: The plastic strain at failure. Hardness: The ability of material to resist the deformation
