1. A metal has a flow curve with strength coefficient = 850 MPa and strain-
hardening exponent n= 0.30. A tensile specimen of the metal with gage
length = 100 mm is stretched to a length = 157 mm. Determine the flow
stress at the new length and the average flow stress that the metal has been
subjected to during the deformation.

hardening exponent = 0.27. Determine the average flow stress that the
metal experiences if it is subjected to a stress that is equal to its strength
coefficient K.

4. In a tensile test, two pairs of values of stress and strain were measured for
the specimen metal after it had yielded: (1) true stress = 217 MPa and true
strain = 0.35, and (2) true stress = 259 MPa and true strain = 0.68. Based
on these data points, determine the strength coefficient and strain-
hardening exponent.

5. The following stress and strain values were measured in the plastic region
during a tensile test carried out on a new experimental metal: (1) true stress
= 43,608 lb/in2 and true strain = 0.27, and (2) true stress = 52,048 lb/in2
and true strain = 0.85. Based on these data points, determine the strength
coefficient and strain-hardening exponent.

6. A tensile test is performed to determine the strength constant C and strain-


rate sensitivity exponent m for a certain metal. The temperature at which
the test is performed = 500°C. At a strain rate = 12/s, the stress is measured
at 160 MPa; and at a strain rate = 250/s, the stress = 300 MPa. (a)
Determine C and m. (b) If the temperature were 600°C, what changes
would you expect in the values of C and m?

7. A tensile test is carried out to determine the strength constant C and strain-
rate sensitivity exponent m for a certain metal at 1000 ºF. At a strain rate =
10/s, the stress is measured at 23,000 lb/in2; and at a strain rate = 300/s, the
stress = 45,000 lb/in2. (a) Determine C and m. (b) If the temperature were
900 ºF, what changes would you expect in the values of C and m?
