Metals Flashcards
Plastic deformation is
Permanent
Plastic deformation occurs when
Bonds within a material are broken
Ductility=
The capacity to be drawn into a wire
Malleability=
The ability to be pounded into thin sheets are shaped using a hammer
Tensile tests are measurements of
Strength
Yield strength is defined by
A 0.2% offset from the linear elastic region
What data from a tensile test can be used to measure ductility
%elongation
%reduction in area
High strength steels show ……. hence use a …… strength
Continuous yielding
Proof strength
Mild steels show a ……hence use an ……. strength
Yield drop
Upper and lower yield strength
A yield drop is important when….. because it can form
Press forming components
Permanent deformation
What strength do we use for design and why
Yield strength
For safety
We can change the shape and properties of materials by …… them beyond their …..
Stressing
Yield point
4 types of metal forming
Rolling
Extruding
Forging
Sheet forming
