Chapter Outline Mechanical Properties of Metals How do metals respond to external loads? Stress and Strain Tension Compression Shear Torsion Elastic deformation Plastic Deformation Yield Strength Tensile Strength Ductility Toughness Hardness Optional reading (not tested): details of the different types of hardness tests, variability of material properties (starting from the middle of page 174) MSE 2090: Introduction to Materials Science Chapter 6, Mechanical Properties 1 Introduction To understand and describe how materials deform (elongate, compress, twist) or break as a function of applied load, time, temperature, and other conditions we need first to discuss standard test methods and standard language for mechanical properties of materials. ) a P M ( σ , s s e r t S Strain, ε(mm / mm) MSE 2090: Introduction to Materials Science Chapter 6, Mechanical Properties 2 Types of Loading Tensile Compressive Shear Torsion MSE 2090: Introduction to Materia
