Strength of materials

Abdalla M Abdalla
Chapter 2: Engineering Materials
Properties
Some of Materials Engineer properties are :
1) Mechanical properties

2) Electrical Properties

5) Thermal Properties
2. Materials Selection:
 Selection according properties,

1. What properties are required?

2. What are the processing requirements and their implications for the choice of material?
3. What is the availability of materials?
4. What is the cost?
(v) Selection According Mechanical properties:
 Mechanical properties describe the behavior of material in terms of deformation and
resistance to deformation under specific mechanical loading condition.
2- Mechanical properties:
 Within the elastic limit, the material returns to its original dimension on removal of
the load.
 The elastic modulus is referred to the slope of the stress-strain behavior in the elastic
region and its SI unit is conceived as N.m-2.
The elastic modulus is also referred to as the constant of proportionality between stress and
strain according to Hooke’s Law.
Beyond the elastic limit, the materials retains a permanent, irreversible strain (or deformation)
even after the load is removed.
 The modulus of rigidity of a material is defined as the ratio of shear stress to shear strain
within the elastic limit.
 The bulk modulus is referred to the ratio of pressure and volumetric strain within the elastic
limit.
• Typical stress-strain curve of Carbon-steel
under uniaxial tensile loading:
1.) Stress – strain curve for some materials:
General properties:
 Cast Iron:
The graph gives the limit of proportionality as about 280 MPa, the tensile strength about 300 MPa
and the modulus of elasticity about 200 GPa.
 Glass :
The graph indicates the limit of proportionality is about 250 MPa, the tensile strength’ about 260
MPa and the modulus of elasticity about 70 GPa.
 Mild steel:
The limit or proportionality is about 240 MPa, the tensile strength about 400 MPa and the modulus
of elasticity about 200 GPa.
 Polyethylene:
The limit of proportionality is about 8 MPa, the tensile strength about 11 MPa and the modulus of
elasticity about 0.1 GPa.
 Rubber:
The tensile strength is about 25 MPa. the modulus of elasticity about 30 MPa.
