Question: Engineering stress - strain data are plotted above for a portion of a tension test on 7 0 7 5 T 6 5 1 Aluminum.

Engineering stress-strain data are plotted above for a portion of a tension test on 7075T651 Aluminum. Note that data points A and B are labeled with their stress strain coordinates. The test bar has dimensions of 150 mm in length and 12 mm in diameter. Find the following parameters:
a) Approximate value of the elastic modulus E?
b) Yield strength (determined by a plastic strain offset of .002(0.2%)?
c) If the bar is strained to the point B and then unloaded, what is the plastic (permanent) strain that remains after unloading?
d) If the bar is strained to the point B and then unloaded, what is the length of the bar after unloading?
e) If the bar is strained to the point A, what is the length of the bar at A and after unloading?
f) What is the Elastic Strain Energy Density (Ur)?
g) What is the internal Strain Energy Density (u) in the bar and the external work done (U) by the load at B?
