1. Invoke the Mises yield criterion to show that the approximate plastic zone around the tip of a Mode III crack is a circle of radius 3 km 2
5. (2 pts) Explain in words and illustrate schematically the concepts of electronic effect and steric hindrance with regard to rates of hydration when comparing aldehydes to ketones.
- prac with a through thickness crack of length 2a = 20 mm ected to a stress of 400 MPa normal to the crack. If the yield strength of the steel is 1500 MPa, what is the plastic zone size and the stress intensity factor for the crack. Assume that the plate is infinitely wide.
Deformation and Fracture Mechanics
1. (Fracture toughness) (a) An AISI 4340 steel plate has a width W of 30 cm and has a central crack 2a of 3 mm. The plate is under a uniform stress, ?·This steel has a Kic value of 50 m2. Find the maximum stress for this crack length. (b) If the operating stress is 1500 MPa, compute the maximum crack size that the steel may have without failure. 2. (Plastic zone radius) The size of...
SECTION A Q1. (a) The standards for testing the fracture toughness of materials define the shape and proportion of the specimens but not their size. Explain why this is and why it is necessary to use specimens of different sizes for these tests. [5 marks] (b) You are testing samples of steel with a yield stress of 1200 MPa. Initial results show that the fracture toughness is 120 MPavm. The specimens are 10 mm thick. Determine whether the specimens are...
