Chapter 1, Problem 1.5.3P

A tensile test was performed on a metal specimen having a circular cross section with a diameter 0. 510 inch. For each increment of load applied, the strain was directly determined by means of a strain gage attached to the specimen. The results are, shown in Table: 1.5.1.

a. Prepare a table of stress and strain.

b. Plot these data to obtain a stress-strain curve. Do not connect the data points; draw a best-fit straight line through them.

c. Determine the modulus of elasticity as the slope of the best-fit line.

The data shown in the table were obtained from a tensile test of a metal specimen with a rectangular cross-section of 0.2 in.? in area and a gage length (the length over which the elongation is measured) of 2.000 inches. a. Generate a table of stress and strain values. b. Plot these values and draw a best-fit line to obtain a stress-strain curve. c. Determine the modulus of elasticity from the slope of the linear portion of the curve. d. Estimate the value of the proportional limit. e. Use the 0.2% offset method to determine the yield stress.

The results of a tensile test are shown in Table 1.5.2. The test was performed on a metal specimen with a circular cross section. The diameter was 3⁄8 inch and the gage length (the length over which the elongation is measured) was 2 inches. a. Use the data in Table 1.5.2 to produce a table of stress and strain values. b. Plot the stress–strain data and draw a best-fit curve. c. Compute the modulus of elasticity from the initial slope of the curve. d. Estimate the yield stress
