Q 1 state the condition responsible for ductile to britel transition during failure and also classifies all type of farctures?

ANS. There are numerous factors that influence a ductile-to-brittle transition within plastic materials, such as:

• Temperature

• Stress Concentration

• Chemical Contact

• Molecular Weight

• Degradation

• Filler Content

• Contamination

• Poor Fusion

• Strain Rate

• Time Under Load

• Crystallinity

• Plasticizer Content

type of fracture are Brittle fracture Brittle fracture in glass.

Fracture of an aluminum crank arm. Bright: brittle fracture. Dark: fatigue fracture. In brittle fracture, no apparent plastic deformation takes place before fracture. In brittle crystalline materials, fracture can occur by cleavage as the result of tensile stress acting normal to crystallographic planes with low bonding (cleavage planes). In amorphous solids, by contrast, the lack of a crystalline structure results in a conchoidal fracture, with cracks proceeding normal to the applied tension. The theoretical strength of a crystalline material is (roughly)

Ductile fracture

Ductile failure of a specimen strained axially.

Schematic representation of the steps in ductile fracture (in pure tension). In ductile fracture, extensive plastic deformation (necking) takes place before fracture. The terms rupture or ductile rupture describe the ultimate failure of tough ductile materials loaded in tension. Rather than cracking, the material "pulls apart," generally leaving a rough surface. In this case there is slow propagation and an absorption of a large amount energy before fracture.[citation needed] Many ductile metals, especially materials with high purity, can sustain very large deformation of 50–100% or more strain before fracture under favorable loading condition and environmental condition. The strain at which the fracture happens is controlled by the purity of the materials. At room temperature, pure iron can undergo deformation up to 100% strain before breaking, while cast iron or high-carbon steels can barely sustain 3% of strain.[citation needed] Because ductile rupture involves a high degree of plastic deformation, the fracture behavior of a propagating crack as modeled above changes fundamentally. Some of the energy from stress concentrations at the crack tips is dissipated by plastic deformation before the crack actually propagates. The basic steps are: void formation, void coalescence (also known as crack formation), crack propagation, and failure, often resulting in a cup-and-cone shaped failure surface.

Q 3 what are the various machanical properties intrupted from tensile testing. also give the detail procedure of tortion testing of mild steel bar??

ANS.Tensile testing, also known as tension testing, is a fundamental materials science test in which a sample is subjected to a controlled tension until failure. The results from the test are commonly used to select a material for an application, for quality control, and to predict how a material will react under other types of forces. Properties that are directly measured via a tensile test are ultimate tensile strength, maximum elongation and reduction in area.[2] From these measurements the following properties can also be determined: Young's modulus, Poisson's ratio, yield strength, and strain-hardening characteristics.[3] Uniaxial tensile testing is the most commonly used for obtaining the mechanical characteristics of isotropic materials. For anisotropic materials, such as composite materials and textiles, biaxial tensile testing is required.

PROCEDURE: 1. Measure the overall length and test diameter of the specimen. 2. Draw a line down the length of the test section of the specimen with a pencil; this serves as a visual aid  to the degree of twist being put on the specimen during loading. 3. Mount the specimen firmly in the torsion testing machine as indicated in the operating instructions – see later. (If the Torsiometer is to be used the fixed procedure should be carried as prescribed in the last part the bulletin). For each increment of strain record the following: (a) Angle of twist of the specimen (θ) in degrees. (b)  Applied torque (T) (c) Angle of twist over the 50 mm (or 2.0 in) gauge length in radians, as recorded by dial gauge indicator (θ) radians. (d) When the elastic limit has been passed, continue to test destruction with increasing increments of strain, recording for each strain increment, i) Angle of twist in degrees; ii)  Applied torque.
