Hardness Conversion
Hardness of metal depends on the
ease with which it plastically
deforms
Measured hardnesses are only
relative.
Conversion is required when
comparing values by different
techniques
Both tensile and hardness are
indicators of metal’s resistance to
plastic deformation:

Consider a single crystal of BCC iron oriented such that a tensile stress
is applied along a [010] direction.
(a) Compute the resolved shear stress along a (110) plane and in a
[111] direction when a tensile stress of 52 MPa (7500 psi) is
applied. (Ans: 21.3 MPa)
(b) If slip occurs on a (110) plane and in a [111] direction, and the
critical resolved shear stress is 30 MPa, calculate the magnitude of
the applied tensile stress necessary to initiate yielding.
(Ans: 73.4 MPa)
