    Ce 241 - Materials Science: Mechanical Properties of Materials

    Uploaded by

    yasin ytt
    This document introduces the topic of mechanical properties of materials. It states that mechanical properties determine how materials respond to applied forces. It explains that different materials deform by different amounts when subjected to the same loads. The mechanical properties of materials depend on their type of bonding, structural arrangement of atoms, and imperfections, as well as the type of loading and mode of application. Basic concepts like force, stress, deformation and strain are introduced to further analyze mechanical properties.

    Part I: Introduction
    Department of Civil Engineering
    CE241: Materials Science
    MECHANICAL PROPERTIES OF MATERIALS
    • “Mechanical Properties” are the properties that determine
    the response of engineering materials to applied forces.
    • Which material would you pick to cross this cliff?

    Wood? Steel?

    MECHANICAL PROPERTIES OF MATERIALS
    • “Mechanical Properties” are the properties that determine
    the response of engineering materials to applied forces.
    • Which material would you pick to cross this cliff?
    • How much deformation will take place when a certain
    amount of load is applied?
    – Mechanical properties of that material.
    – The cross-sectional properties of that load carrying member.

    • Even though both rods have the
    same cross-sectional properties,
    when subjected to the same loads,
    Aluminum Rod
    Steel Rod

    F the response of steel is different


    than the response of aluminum.
    • The mechanical properties of steel
    and aluminum are different.

    MECHANICAL PROPERTIES OF MATERIALS
    • Some materials break easily when compared to the others that
    can show large deformations before failure!

    CE241: Materials Science
    MECHANICAL PROPERTIES OF MATERIALS
    • The response of materials to applied forces will depend on
    – the type of bonding,
    – the structural arrangement of atoms or molecules,
    – the type and number of imperfections which are always present in solids.
    MODULUS
    • Therefore, mechanical properties are veryOF ELASTICITY
    sensitive to
    manufacturing processes and operations.
    • Moreover, the type of loading (compression/tension etc.) and the
    mode of load application (static/dynamic) may change the
    behavior of a material to a greater degree than the chemical
    composition, heat treatment or temperature.

    • But before we go further we have to introduce some basic
    concepts:
    • FORCE FORCE STRESS
    – External
    – Internal
    • STRESS
    – Normal DEFORMATION STRAIN
    – Shear
    • DEFORMATION
    • STRAIN
