Different types of stress ( tension, compression & shear )
Dotted lines represent pre-stressed shape
Strain = (l – lo ) / lo
Tensile stress Compressive Stress

Stress – Strain Tests
1. Compressive stress:
not very common, for brittle materials, stress is taken to be
negative, strain is already negative
→ compressive is much larger than tensile
2. Shear stress ( couple )
F / A0 where F is force or load applied to upper and lower faces
distance h apart, each of which has an area A0
Elastic Shear
.
modulus Modulus
Influence of temperature on Stress – strain behavior
Example – Iron ( ductility increases as T increases. Why )
Geometric considerations of Stress - Strain on inclined planes

Shear stress = Fsinθ ÷ A / cosθ

Resilience is the capacity of a material to absorb energy when deformed
elastically and, upon unloading, to have this energy recovered
( check dimensions )
Modulus of resilience
Modulus of elasticity
Fracture strength
Ductility:
Percent elongation at fracture
1. Simple
2. inexpensive test and equipment
3. specimen need not be prepared
4. Test is non-destructive ( only small indentation results )
5. Other mechanical properties estimated from hardness test
Indenter shape is
Ball
Cone
Pyramidal
Hardness
(Materials resistance to localized plastic deformation)
Today, sophisticated:
Indenter made of
hardened steel,
tungsten carbide, Indenter is forced into test-surface
or diamond Using measured vertical load
With known rate of application
Depth or Cross section of the indentation is measured
and related to a HARDNESS NUMBER
( This number is relative )
Different methods of Hardness Tests:
Rockwell→ Indenter is spherical Ball of hardened steel or
Conical diamond for hardest materials
Minor and Major loads are applied & difference taken
Average = 517
Small for metals but large for polymers
called viscoelastic
