Enginering Materials- Module 4, Activity 1

Analyze the stress -strain curves of the four tested material specimens( Steel , Brass, Copper and  Aluminum) created earlier to find the following:

1.   Which material has the highest compressive strength?

____________________________________________________________

2.   Which material has the highest yield strength?

____________________________________________________________

Engineering Materials- Module 2 -Activity 1

1. Why pieces of cast iron can not be bent? What are the properties that the material should have in order to be bent?



2. Give examples of situations where the material is subjected to tensile, compression and shear stress.



3. Classify the materials; lead, rubber, steel, and concrete under headings elastic, plastic, and brittle.
