Q1. A specimen of steel having an initial diameter of 12.8 mm was tested in tension using a gauge length of 50 mm . The following data were obtained for the elastic and plastic states:
Elastic State Plastic State Load P(kN) Elongation (mm) Load P(kN) Area A_(i)(mm^(2))4.50.0139.61289.00.01541.412713.50.02541.012618.00.032559.412431.50.057568.412137.80.0776.510139.60.0973.88441.40.222566.670
Please note that there is some overlap in the data.
(a) Plot the engineering or nominal stress-strain diagram using two scales for the unit strain, one scale from zero to about 0.002mm//mm and the other scale from zero to the maximum strain.
(b) From the diagrams completed under (a), find the modulus of elasticity and the ultimate strength of the material. Also, find the percent reduction in the area of the specimen.
(c) Characterize the material as ductile or brittle. Explain your reasoning.
(d) Identify a material specification from Table A-20(Shigley's book) that has a reasonable match to the data.
