3. For some metal alloy, a true stress of 345 MPa produces a plastic true strain of 0.02. How much will a specimen of this material elongate when a true stress of 415 MPa is applied if the original length is 500 mm? Assume a value of 0.22 for the strain-hardening exponent, n.
4. Two previously undeformed specimens of the same metal are to be plastically deformed by reducing their cross-sectional areas. One has a circular cross section, and the other is rectangular; during deformation the circular cross section is to remain circular, and the rectangular is to remain as such. Their original and deformed dimensions are as follows: Circular (diameter, mm) Original dimensions Deformed dimensions 15.2 11.4 Rectangular (mm) 125 x 175 75 x 200
5. Following is tabulated data that were gathered from a series of Charpy impact tests on a tempered 4340 steel alloy. Temperature (C) 0 -25 -50 -75 -100 -113 -125 -150 -175 -200 Impact Energy (J) 105 104 103 97 63 40 34 28 25 24
(a). Plot the data as impact energy versus temperature. (b). Determine a ductile-to-brittle transition temperature as that temperature corresponding to the average of the maximum and minimum impact energies. (c). Determine a ductile-to-brittle transition temperature as that temperature at which the impact energy is 50 J.
