What s the deformation of a solid due to an applied force?
when the reactive force is less as compared to the applied force on the body then a deformation occurs in the body.
What is the difference between brittle and ductile with two examples of each?
Generally something that is brittle will not deform, or deform very little before it breaks, where as something that is ductile will deform a lot before it breaks. That is how it is when comparing steels. White cast iron has no ductility therefore it will break with little or no deformation, where as mild steel has higher ductility and will deform considerably before it breaks.
What is ductile fracture?
A ductile fracture is caused by plastic deformation that can be identified by cap and cone appearance of the fracture.
What is the difference between tension and shearing?
tension is pulling force exerted by string , cable or similar solid object to other objectshearing hearing refers more specifically to a mechanical process that causes a plastic shear strain in a material, rather than causing a merely elastic one. A plastic shear strain is a continuous (non-fracturing) deformation that is irreversible, such that the material does not recover its original shape
What is changing the shape of an object called?
The general term is deformation, but it has several different types depending on the material.
Is it true Elastic deformation occurs when a material deforms as stress is applied?
Up to a point, it is possible to elastically deform any material. If the force is released, the material relaxes back to its original shape. If a material is deformed too much, the deformation becomes permanent (plastic deformation) or fracture will occur in a non-ductile material such as glass.
Is steel synthetic?
If by plastic you mean a material made from plastic as opposed to plastic deformation of say steel for example, then yes, they are synthetic.
What is plastic deformation?
Plastic deformation is a permanent unrecoverable deformation. When the load that caused the deformation is removed, the material will not return to it's original shape but will maintain it's newly deformed shape.
What is proportional strength?
When a material deforms, it does so in several stages. The first stage, called the elastic region of deformation, is linear in nature and not permanent. A stress can be applied, and once it's removed, the material will regain all of the deformation. The second stage, plastic deformation, is permanent. A material that has been stressed into the plastic region will regain the elastic deformation, but will permanently maintain the plastic.The proportional strength is the point at which plastic deformation begins.
What is flow stress?
flow stress is yield stress of material during plastic deformation
Does plastic deformation occurs more readily in warm rock than in cool rock?
Yes
What is Yield Strengths?
Yield strength is the stress at which a specified amount of permanent deformation of a material occurs. When we apply stress to a material, it deforms. Some of the deformation is plastic and the material can recover when the stress is relieved. But some deformation is permanent and the material cannot recover from it. As we apply more stress, there is more deformation. This plots on a curve in a somewhat linear, or proportional, way. But at some point, a bit more stress results in a lot more deformation, and this is the proportional limit of the material. Stress applied beyond this causes an increasing rate of deformation until the maximum or ultimate strength of the material is reached. (Beyond that it will fail completely.) Somewhere between the proportional limit and the ultimate strength of the material is the yield strength. The yield strength of a material cannot be calculated for any material. It must be arrived at through (repeated) experiment and statistical analysis. Use the link below to the related question, and the other links to related articles that explain more about yield strength.
What is the effect of springback concept on plastic deformation?
Springback means Recovered elastic strain on material after the load is removed.
What is cold plastic deformation?
it is deformation below recrystalization temperature.
What is plastic memory?
If certain plastics (take for instance PTFE) is subjected to stresses below its yield point then it may be subjected to permanent deformation. This deformation will induce certain strains through out the material. If the plastic is heated up, these strains tend to relax which allows the plastic to return to its original shape. This is often refered to as "plastic memory".
Difference between elastic and plastic deformation?
Elastic deformation returns to it's original shape after a strain is applied. Plastic deformation returns to a deformed shape after a strain is applied. The material's molecular bonds are strained to the point of fracture, making it not possible to return to the same state. Elastic deformation will return to its original shape. Plastic deformation is when you alter the original form. To understand more on this subject you might investigate failure analysis literature. Lots of good stuff there ratchet marks, beach marks, reverse bending etc... I believe the U.S. metallurgical society has the best reference material on this subject. A temporary shape change that is self-reversing after the force is removed, so that the object returns to its original shape, is called elastic deformation. In other words, elastic deformation is a change in shape of a material at low stress that is recoverable after the stress is removed. Examples would be the loading of a bridge or building support beam where the loads remain within the original design parameters, or the use of a safety pin where when it is opened it returns to it's unloaded shape. When the stress is sufficient to permanently deform the metal, it is called plastic deformation. Examples would be the building support beams for the twin towers, where the heat generated by the fires decreased the strength of the steel and allowed it to deform plastically, or the loads that are applied to a section of electrical conduit or mechanical piping in order to bend them into a specific shape. in elastic def. , the material returns to its original shape once force is removed. in plastic, the deformation is permanent and the material doesn't return to its original shape the elastic deformation happens in yield point and elastic deformation back to original size but plastic deformation will not back tto original size.
What is an example of deformation?
In an elastic deformation, the object will return to its original shape afterwards (like tapping your arm softly with a needle, without piercing the skin). In a plastic deformation the object will first undergo elastic deformation, but then undergo a deformation that changes the shape of the material. (like tapping your arm with a needle that pierces through the skin and leaves a small wound).
