The following data were recorded during the tensile test of a 14-mm-diameter mild steel rod. The
gage length was 50 mm.
Plot the stress-strain diagram and determine the following mechanical properties: (a)
proportional limits; (b) modulus of elasticity; (c) yield point; (d) ultimate strength; and (e)
rupture strength.
Problem2
The following data were obtained during a tension test of an aluminum alloy. The initial
diameter of the test specimen was 0.505 in. and the gage length was 2.0 in.
Plot the stress-strain diagram and determine the following mechanical properties: (a)
proportional limit; (b) modulus of elasticity; (c) yield point; (d) yield strength at 0.2% offset; (e)
ultimate strength; and (f) rupture strength.
Problem 3
A rigid bar of negligible weight is supported as shown in Fig. P-271. If W = 80 kN, compute the
temperature change that will cause the stress in the steel rod to be 55 MPa. Assume the
coefficients of linear expansion are 11.7 µm/(m·°C) for steel and 18.9 µm/(m·°C) for bronze.
Problem 4
As shown in Fig. P-269, there is a gap between the aluminum bar and the rigid slab that is
supported by two copper bars. At 10°C, Δ = 0.18 mm. Neglecting the mass of the slab, calculate
the stress in each rod when the temperature in the assembly is increased to 95°C. For each copper
bar, A = 500 mm2, E = 120 GPa, and α = 16.8 µm/(m·°C). For the aluminum bar, A = 400 mm2,
E = 70 GPa, and α = 23.1 µm/(m·°C).
