Q

Yielding

A

The transition from E -> P regimen. In many many cases we do not wish to approach this load, but is is sometimes difficult to estimate when the transition from E to P happens. We can approximate by drawing a straight line starting at 0.002 strain. This line is parallel to the initial stress strain curve. Another common value is 0.005

30
Ficks first law
Steady state: (when the rate of diffusion into a system is equal to the right of diffusion out of the system. No net accumulation or depletion.) Jx= -D (dc/dx) Jx = Flux (or flow rate) of the diffusing species in the x direction due to a concentration gradient (dc/dx) D= diffusion coefficient, or sometimes called diffusivity. dc/dx - the change in concentration delta C/ over the change in dimension delta x
31
Ficks second law
Transient non-steady state conditions. dCx/dt = d/dx(D dCx/dx) If we assume a semi infinite solid, with a surface concentration of the diffusing species, Cs constant then we can solve using: (Cx-Co)/(Cs-Co) = 1-erf(x/2sqrt(Dt)) X-position of interest t-time of interest Co- initial bulk concentration Cs- surface concentration
32
Effects of Temperature on Diffusivity
D = Do e^(-q/kT) Do- constant q- activation energy to start moving defects, which consequently moves atoms.
33
Diffusion rates from fastest to slowest
Fastest, surfaces. Examples: catalytic, converters, photographic film. Medium, grain boundary. Examples: critical for durability of interconnections in micro electronics. Slowest, bulk (volume). Examples: a solid piece of material.
34

The weight of a particular element relative to the total alloy weight
35
Atom percent

36
Diffusion

37
Inter diffusion or impurity diffusion
The process by which atoms of one metal diffuse into another
38
Self diffusion
Diffusion occurring in pure metals where atoms exchange positions for the same type of atom.
39
What conditions must be met for Adams to diffuse?
For an atom to move, two conditions must be met. One there must be an empty adjacent site, and two the atoms must have sufficient energy to break bonds with its neighboring atoms, and then caused some lattice distortion during the displacement.
40
Vacancy diffusion
One mechanism involves the interchanging of atoms from a normal lattice, position to an adjacent vacant, lattice site or vacancy.
41
Interstitial diffusion
Adams that migrate from an interest position to neighboring ones that is empty. This mechanism is for the diffusion of impurities such as hydrogen, carbon, nitrogen, and oxygen which have atoms that are small enough to fit into the interstitial positions. Host or substitutional parties rarely form interstitial and do not normally diffuse via this mechanism.
42
Diffusion flux
J- how fast do diffusion occurs or the right of mass transfer. J = M/At M- mass diffusing through A- cross-sectional area T- unit time
43
Ficks first law
J =- D dC/dx D: diffusion coefficient dC/dx: concentration gradient
44
Steady state diffusion.
The mass diffusing the species entering the plate on the high-pressure side is equal to the mass extending from the low pressure surface such that there is no net accumulation of diffusing species in the plate.
45
Concentration profile
When concentration see is plotted versus position or distance within the solid X, the resulting curve is termed to the concentration profile.
46
Concentration gradient
The slope at any given point of the concentration profile.
47
Driving force
What compels a reaction to occur
48
Are more practical diffusion, sit situation, steady state or non-steady state
Most are non-state so the diffuser flux and concentration at some particular point in solid vary with time
49
Fix second law
dC/dt = D (d^2C/dx^2) Or (Cx-Co)/(Cs-Co) = 1-erf(x/2sqrt(Dt))
50
What assumptions can be made about situations in which the surface concentration is held constant.
One. Before diffusion, any of the diffusing, a salute atoms in the solid are uniformly distributed with concentration Co. Two. The value of X at the surface is zero and increases with distance into the solid. Three. The time it taken to be zero the instant before the diffusion process begins. T=0 C = Co at 0<=x<=infinity
51
Carburizing
Increasing the surface, concentration of carbon.
52
Factors that influence diffusion
Diffusion species, temperature
53

57
Elastic deformation
Deformation in which stress and strain are proportional.
58
Modulus of elasticity
E, this modulus may be thought of as stiffness or materials resistance to elastic deformation. The greater the modulus, the stiffer, the material, or the smaller, the elastic strain that results from the application of a given stress.
59

62
Plastic deformation
Stress is no longer proportional to strain and permanent non-recoverable deformation occurs
63
Yielding
The stress level at which plastic deformation begins.
64
Proportional limit
The point of yielding may be determined as the initial departure from the line of the stress strain curve. This is sometimes called the proportional limit as indicated by point P.
65
Tensile strength.
The stress at the maximum on the engineering stress straight and curve. This corresponds to the maximum stress that can be sustained by a structure, intention. If the stress is applied and maintained fractures will result. All deformations to this point is uniform throughout the narrow region of the tensile specimin
66
Ductility
A measure of the degree of plastic deformation that has been sustained at fracture. A metal that experiences very, very little or no plastic deformation upon fracture is determined brittle. Maybe expressed by percent elongation or percent area reduction %EL = (lf-lo/lo) *100 %RA = (Ao-Af/Ao)*100
67
How can you qualify brittle materials reference to ductility?
Bridle materials are approximately considered to have fracture strains of less than about 5%
68
Resilience
The capacity of a material to absorb energy when it is deformed elastically, and then upon unloading to have this energy recovered. The associated property is the modulus of resilience Ur.
69
Modulus of resilience definition
Ur = integral ( o )de Integral of stress de strain from 0 to ey
70
Modulus of resilience, assuming linear elasticity
Ur = 1/2 stressy strain y Or Ur= stressy^2/ 2E
71
Toughness
Toughness is a mechanical term that is used in several context for one toughness is a property that is indicative of a materials resistance to fracture when a crack is present. Toughness is also the ability of a material to absorb energy and plastically deformed before fracturing.
72
Stress to force relationship
Stress = Force/Area
73
Tre stress and strain
From the engineering stress strain diagram it may appear that less stress is required to keep deforming the material. The issue is that the cross sectional area decreases as we do the test, so true stress is increasing. True stress = Force/ instantaneous Area
74
True stress
True stress = Force/ instantaneous area
75
True strain
True strain = ln ( li/lo) ln - natural log li- instantaneous length lo- original length
76
True stress related to engineering stress and strain
True stress = engineering stress( 1+ engineering strain)
77
True strain related to engineering stress and strain
True strain = ln( 1+ engineering strain) ln- natural log
78
Strain Hardening
Is related ti the slope if true stress vs true strain. The steeper the slope the more strain hardening
79

81
Rockwell test “HR”
Consists of a machine that applies a load onto a material: - Indenter type -magnitude of load -time(dwell) The deeper the impression the softer the material.
82
Can a single hardness test be used on all materials?
No, scale for specific ranges of hardness is used
83
Brinell Test “HB”
In this test, a steel ball is pressed against a material. This impression is ~mm wide. Tensile strength (MPa) = 3.45 * HB Tensile strength (psi) = 500 * HB
84
Vickers Test “HV”
Typically done on a small scale to measure hardness of “delicate”, ie small, features. Impression is a pyramidal diamond. The bigger d1 and d2 (tip to tip measurements) the softer the material. Indent is smaller than human hair
85
Fatigue
Fatigue is the type of failure where the material fails below its yield strength, because of cyclical loading. Avg Stress = (max stress+minus stress)/2 Stress range(or) = max stress - min stress. Amplitude = stress range/ 2 Stress Ratio (R) = max stress/min stress
