Question: ( a ) Define a slip system. ( b ) Do all metals have the same slip system? Why or why not? ( a )

(a) Define a slip system.
(b) Do all metals have the same slip system? Why or why not?
(a) What is the approximate ductility (%EL) of a brass that has a yield strength of 345MPa(50,000)?
(b) What is the approximate Brinell hardness of a 1040 steel having a yield strength of 620MPa(90,000)?
A cylindrical rod of 1040 steel originally 11.4 mm (0.45 in .) in diameter is to be cold worked by drawing; the
circular cross section will be maintained during deformation. A cold-worked tensile strength in excess of 825
MPa (120,000) and a ductility of at least 12% EL are desired. Furthermore, the final diameter must be 8.9 mm
(0.35 in.). Explain how this may be accomplished.
A specimen of a 4340 steel alloy with a plane strain fracture toughness of 54.8MPam2(50ksin.2) is
exposed to a stress of 1030MPa(150,000). Will this specimen experience fracture if the largest surface
crack is 0.5 mm (0.02 in .) long? Why or why not? Assume that the parameter Y has a value of 1.0.
The fatigue data for a brass alloy are given as follows:
(a) Make an S-N plot (stress amplitude versus logarithm of cycles to failure) using these data.
(b) Determine the fatigue strength at 4106 cycles.
(c) Determine the fatigue life for 120 MPa .
( a ) Define a slip system. ( b ) Do all metals
