 Stress

Stress = Resisting force per unit area

As there is no resistance against F force,there will be no stress in the body.

Stress develops in body.

Stress develops in body

• Stress are generated as a resistance to the applied external forces or as a result of restrained deformations.

Stresses are broadly classified as-

 

1. Normal stress  -   acts perpendicular to surface.

 

 2.Shear stress -  acts along the surface

 

 

 

Concept of stress

STRAIN

• Strain is defined as deformation per unit length.

Strain is classified as-

 

• Normal strain
• Shear strain

Tension Test of Mild Steel

• Normally Gauge length = 5.65 √A    for both rectangular and circular section.

• Test is done on U.T.M i.e. Universal Testing Machine.

• OA = Linear Curve
• A = Proportional Limit
• B = Elastic Limit
• C = Upper Yield Point
• D = Lower Yield Point
• DE = Plastic region
• EF = Strain hardening region
• FG = Necking region
•  F = Ultimate Stress Point
• G = Fracture point

 

Region OA

 

• From O to A stress is proportional to strain.
• Stress strain curve is linear
• Strains are small
• Normal stress is responsible for Elongation
• Volume of specimen increases

Region AD

• Strain increases more rapidly as compared to stress.
• If specimen is unloaded at point B i.e.Elastic limit,the material will regain its original shape.
• volume of specimen increases
• Point C i.e lower yield point is the load required to maintain yield.
• Point C' i.e. upper yield point is the load reached just before yielding starts.

Region DE

• After reaching Yielding stress,the specimen undergoes large deformation with a small increase in load.
• This is caused due to slippage of materials along oblique surfaces.

 

 

 

 

• It is caused due to shearing stresses.
• These deformation are called plastic deformations and are permanent.
• Volume of specimen does not change.

Region EF

• After undergoing large strains due to yielding,the steel begins to strain harden.
• It is due to change in material crystalline structure.

Region FG

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

• It indicates that shear is primarily responsible for failure of ductile materials.

• This failure is called Cup cone failure.

True and Apparent Stress

• As Elongation takes place,cross-sectional area  and length of the specimen also changes.
• If stress and strain are plotted corresponding to actual area of cross section and actual length at any time,we get true stress strain curve.

 

Hooke's law

• Stress is proportional to strain within proportional limit.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

• It is valid for isotropic,homogeneous and linearly elastic material.
