When ductile material is loaded, when stress reaches yield and if the load continues, as long as load is not high enough to break material, the material is strain hardened when returning to no load. That means its yield strength will be higher than before, and the material is stronger.

Is there any difference between work hardening and strain hardening?

In strain hardening hypothesis, the size of the yield locus is assumed to beindependent of the third invariant.In work hardening hypothesis, the size of the yield locus is assumed to depend on the total plastic work done (per unit volume) to achieve the present state of plastic deformation since last annealinfor isotropic hardening Both are same.


What is case hardening?

Case hardening or surface hardening is the process of hardening the surface of a metal, often a low carbon steel, by infusing elements into the material's surface, forming a thin layer of a harder alloy.


What is the meaning of hardening?

It is adapt to the surrounding


What are the Stress-strain characteristics of ductile materials?

initially there is the linear elastic region which obeys the hooks law :stress is directly proportional to the strain. at the end of the linear elastic region the ductile material reaches the yield point beyond which any change in dimensions become permanent. the material goes through a yield plateau in which stress is constant and the strain changes. after crossing the yield plateau the ductile material goes through the strain hardening region in which the deformation is permanent but as the region goes on the stress increases with the strain. here the strength of the ductile material increases as it is strain hardened. at a point it reaches the ultimate load point. This is the maximum load taken by the material. after which further deformation causes decrease in strength or the stress goes on decreasing finally breaking at the breaking load point. this region is called the post-ultimate region.

Is the steel strain hardening exponent temperature dependent?

yes, with increased temp, the s.h.e decreaseshiAccording to your answer . I must say that as I know , when we anneald metals ( e.g. Iron ) the S.H.E increased while you can decreas it by cold-work .


What is strain hardening of steel?

Strain hardening, also known as work hardening, is the process by which steel becomes stronger and harder as it is deformed plastically. During this process, the dislocation density within the material increases, making further deformation more difficult. This phenomenon occurs when steel is subjected to processes like bending, stretching, or forging, resulting in improved tensile strength and hardness. However, it can also reduce ductility, making the material more brittle.


What is cold forming?

Cold forming refers to the strengthening of metal through plastic deformation. It is also known as strain hardening or cold working.


Why stress increased again after lower yield point?

hi dear, yes its true that stress increases after lower yield for ductile material. it happens due to reason of strain hardening. strain hardening is the property of the material with which the grain structures presents in the body forms bond between them. so in order to break that bonds, the stress increases after lower yield point..


Would you expect a crystalline ceramic material to strain harden at room temperature?

No, crystalline ceramic materials generally do not exhibit significant strain hardening at room temperature. Unlike metals, which can strengthen through dislocation movement and rearrangement during plastic deformation, ceramics typically have a strong, rigid structure that does not allow for such mechanisms. Instead, ceramics tend to be more brittle and may fracture rather than undergo plastic deformation or strain hardening.


How is aluminium made more hard wearing?

Pure aluminum can be hardened by a technique known by several names: work hardening, strain hardening, cold working or cold forming. Usually, if aluminum is going to be used in a situation where wear is present, an aluminum alloy will be used in preference to pure aluminum.


When does the yield strength of a rectangular metal wire say stainless steel or titanium wire increase?

If you work it beyond the yield point then you raise the yield point in a process called strain hardening


What type of hardening is done to lathe bed?

mostly is the hardening done by induction hardening machine, I know also manufactures that do this using the flame hardening method.


How does surface hardening different from true hardening?

in my opinion surface hardening is applied only on the surface while the true hardening is applied in the whole part of the metal....
