Suress-srain curves condense much information about the mechanical ‘behavior of metals into convenient form. From these basic curves the ‘engineer can extract such information as the strength, ductility, forma- bility, elasticity, and other information useful in prediting the per- formance of « particular alloy under stress, ‘ASM International published the fis edition ofthe Atlas of Stress Sirain Curves, a collection of over $50 curves, in 1986, This book, along with the Atlas of Farigue Curves, Atlas of Creep and Siress. Rupture Curves, and the Atlas of Stress-Corrosion and Corrosion Fatigue Curves, bas formed a set of useful materials propery resources forthe engineer, materials scientist, and designe. Well over three years ago—with the encouragement, assistance, and guidance of the ASM Technical Books and Materials Properties Database Commitees—ASM International embarked on the project to ‘create this updated, expanded, and improved Second Edition of the Atlas of Stress Serain Curves, Some of the overriding goals of this roject have been to: (© Add curves for materials that are especially useful to key indusees, including serospace, automotive, and heavy manufucturing Seek out curves with a “pedigree” so readers can trace the source of, te information and have some indication regarding its reliability Include as much pertinent information as possible for each curve. Factors such as heat-treat condition, product form, thickness, spec- imen size, orientation, history esting temperature, and testing rate all affect materials performance and may be helpful whe inter= ‘retig the curves Normalize the presenti among different materials ‘of the curves to facilitate comparisons ‘We feel ASM International has been reasonably successful in achieving these objectives in this edition. Many people are involved in a project of this size, and we would like to thank those who have contributed to, or assisted, this elfr. First and foremost, ASM International thanks the materials researchers Who created the original curves-—without their efforts this volume would not exist. Donna M. Walker, FASM, Stressolvers Inc., and Veronica Flint, ASM staf, initiated the project to revise and expand this book. ASM. Intemational thanks them for their effors in helping to define the goals for this project and in aequiring many of the new curves to be added 0 the book Special thanks are extendod to Special Metals, Gil Kaufman, FASM, Kaufiman Associates, and Broce Boardnman, FASM, Deere & ‘Company, for their contributions of stress-strain curves, Hiro Okamoto and his associates performed the huge task of ‘edrawing the curves to normalize their presentation, and we are grate= ful for their accurate and timely work. ‘The organization and final quality of dhe data as seen in the book ‘are my responsibility, and any errors, omissions, or misclassifications of alloys are mine. Thank Heather Lampman, the principal copy e ‘or, and the members ofthe ASM International production staf, who have worked diligently o keep any errors to a minimum. However, in any endeavor ofthis scope, there will be mistakes. Corrections, coat- ments, and criticisms are invited It should be noted that most of the data included in this book are ‘ot specified as being minimum, typical or having any defined confi- ence level associated with them. The reader may want to refer tothe souree of a particular curve to find additional details. The “Introduction” in this book provides a review ofthe information that can be extracted from stress strain curves, a clarification of terms used in describing mechanical behavior, and a guide tothe limitations ofthe accuracy and precision ofthe information given Charies Moosbrugger ‘Technical Editor ASM Intemational Representation of Stress-Strain Behavior Charles Moosbrugger, ASM International IT IS APPROPRIATE that a collection of stress-srain curves is named an atlas. An alas isa collection of figures, chars, or maps, so named because early books pictured the Greek Titan, Atlas, om the ‘over or title page, staining with the weight of the world and heavens ‘nm his shoulders. This concept of visualizing the reaction to mechan ‘eal stess is central to development and use of stress-strain curves "This introductory section provides a review of the fundamentals of the mechanical esting that is represented in th curves, The mathemat- ical interpretation of aspects of the curves will aid in analysis of the curves. A lst of terms common to stress-strain behavior is given atthe end of this section. (Ref 1,2). Tensile Testing ‘The simplest loading to visualize is a one-dimensional tensile test, in which a uniform slender test specimen is stretched along its long cen- tral axis, The stress-strain curve is representation ofthe performance ‘of the specimen as the applied load is increased monotonically usually to fracture, ‘Stress-strain curves are usually presented as © “Engineering” stress-strain curves, in which the original dimensions ofthe specimens are used in most calculations. f¢ “True” stress-strain curves, where the instantaneous dimensions of the specimen at each point during the test are used in the calcula- tions. This results in the “rue” curves being above the “engineer ing” curves, notably in the higher strain portion ofthe curves. ‘The development ofthese curves is described in the following sec tions. "To document the tension test, an engineering stress-strain curve is ‘constructed from the load-elongation measurements made on the fest Specimen (Fig. 1).

Other test data are presented asa “fullrange” curve with an “expanded range” to detail he initial parts ofthe curve. Linear Segment of Curves From the origin, O, the initial straight-line portion is the clastic region, where sess is linearly proportional to strain. When the stress is removed. ifthe stain disappears, the specimen is considered com- pletely elastic. “The point st which the curve departs from the straight-line propor- tionality , isthe proportional limit Modulus of elasticity, & also known as Youn’s modulus, is the slope of this inital inear portion ofthe stress-strain curve: «> 2/ Atlas of Stress-Strain Curves where Sis engineering stess and se is engineering train, Modulus of elasticity is a measure ofthe siffness of the material. The greater the ‘modulus, the steeper the slope and the smaller the elastic strain result- ing from the application ofa given stress. Because the modulus of eas ticity is needed for computing deflections of beams and othe structural ‘members, it isan important design valve, ‘The modulus of elasticity is determined by the binding forces between atoms. Because these forces cannot be changed without changing the basic nature ofthe material, the modulus of elasticity is ‘one of the most structure-insensitive of the mechanical properties, Generally, i is only slightly affected by alloying additions, heat weat- ment, or cold work (Ref 3). However, increasing the temperature decreases the modulus of elasticity. At elevated temperatures, the mod- uli is often measured by a dynamic method (Ref 4). Typical values of ‘modulus of elasticity for common engineering materials are given in ‘Table I (Ref 5). Resilience is the ability of a material to absorb energy when ‘deformed elastically and to return it when unloaded. This property usu ally is measured by the modulus of resilience, which is the strain ‘energy per unit volume, Up, required (0 sess the material from zero sures f0 the yield stress, 5, The strain energy per unit volume for any point on the line is just the area under the curve: 1 Yor Ser ea From the definition of modulus of elasticity and the above definition, the maximum resilience occurs a the yield point and is called the mod ‘lus of resilience, Up Ls mats 2S a= 5 Soba SF 3) EE ‘This equation indicates thatthe ideal material for resisting energy'loads in applications where the material must not undergo permanent istor- Table 1_Typical values for modulus of elasticity Met om Wee ‘ras 3.20 Pg 1s Coonan » Copper 0 “Son au at i ed 16 Sagres & Mayhem mm Nake ‘son 1 Notion Ios ‘thee * ‘is an 207 Oise 20 sos D736 tats a m2 Te) set i jor Tol wel anos im Bs ‘Snes 28 8c as 33 ele hs 2 ‘Tings a 36 vein Bs iss Bie as 182 “(a Re gon fs pe bw «fo Fig, 2 suesatsin cues forsee secs, Soc: Ref? tion, such as mechanical spring, is one having a high yield siess and 2 low modulus of elasticity For various grades of stel, the modulus of resilience ranges from 100 104500 ki/m?

The elastic limit is the ‘maximum stress tat can be applied without permanent deformation to the specimen, Some curves exhibit a definite yield point, while others fdo not. When the stress exceeds a value corresponding to the yield strength, the specimen undergoes gross plastic delormation. I the load is subsequently reduced to 0, the specimen will remain pempanent]y Seformed. ‘Measures of Yielding. The stress at which plastic deformation or yielding is observed to begin depends on the sensitivity ofthe stain measurements. With most materials, there isa gradual transition from Clastc to plastic behavioe, and the Point at which plastic deformation begins is difficult to define with precision. In tests of materials under Uniaxial foading, three criteria for the initiation of yiekdng have been ‘sed: the elastic Timi, the proportional limit, and the yield strength. Elastic limit, shown at point B in Fig, 1, isthe greatest stress the ‘material can withstand without any measurable permanent strain remaining after the complete release of load. With incressing sensitiv ity of strain measurement, the value of the elastic limit is decreased tnt it equals the tre elastic limit determined from microstrain meas- ‘urements, With the sensitivity of stain typically used in engineering studies (10-* mnvfaxm oi.) the elastic limit is greater than the pro- portional limit. Determination of the elastic limit requires 2 tedious Incremental loading-unloading test procedure. For this reason, itis often replaced by the proportional limit ‘The yield strength, shown at point YS in Fig. 1 is the stress required to produce a small specified amount of plastic deformation. The usial definition ofthis property is the offset yield strength determined by the stress coresponding tothe intersection of the stress-strain curve offset bya specified strain (sce Fig, 1) In the United States, the offset is ust ally spocified as a strain of 0.2% or 0.1% (e = 0.002 or 0.001) (Offet yield strength determination requires specimen that has been Yoaded to its 0.28 offset yield strength and unloaded so that itis 0.2% Jonger than before the test. The offset yield strength is referred to in 180 Standards asthe proof stess (Ry, oF Ryq.)- Inthe EN standards for materials that do not have a yield phenomenon present, the 0.2% proof strength (Ryg2) 0.5% (&yq.s) is determined. The nonpropor- Tional elongation is either 0.1%, 0.2%, of 0.5%. The yield strength ‘oblained by an offset method is commonly used for design and speci- FReation purposes, because i avoids the practical dificulties of measur ing the elastic limit or proportional Limit. ‘Some materials have essentially no linear portion to their stress strain curve, for example, soft copper or gray cast iron. For these mate rials, the offset method cannot be used, and the usual practice is to define the yield strength asthe stress to produce some total strain, for example, ¢ = 0.005. The European Standard for general-purpose cop- Der rod, EN 12163 (Ret 8), gives approximate 0,2% proof strength (Ryo) for information, but itis not a requitement. This approach i fl- Towed for other material forms (bar and wire), but for some copper tuhes, a maximum Ryo2 is specified For copper alloy pressure vessel plate and some spring strip, a minimum Ryo is specified. Materials with Yield Point Phenomenon. Many metals, particu- larly annealed low-carbon stel, show a localized, heterogeneous type Of transition from elastic to plastic deformation tat produces a yield point in the stress-strain curve. Rather than having a flow curve with a ‘gradual transition from elastic to plastic behavior, such as Fig. 4(0, "cals with a yield point proce a low curve ora load-elongation di ‘gram similar to Fig. 4(b).

Tn EN standards for materials exhibiting yield point, the upper yield strength, Re may be specified. The upper and lower yield stess (Re, Fa) are specified in some EN and ISO standards in units of Nim (ENimum?= | MPa), EN 10027-1 (Ref 9) notes te term “yield strength” as used inthis European standard roles to upper or lower yield strength (Rag oF Rx), proof strength (Re), or the proof strength (otal extension (R), depending on the requirement specified in the relevant product standard. This serves as caution thatthe details on how the “yield strength of “yield point” is defined must be known when making ny ‘comparisons or conclusions as to the materials characteristics “Typical yield point behavior of low-carbon steel is shown in Fig. 5. The slope ofthe initial linear portion ofthe stress-strain curve, desig nated by B, isthe modulus of elasticity. The load at which the sudéen drop occur is called the upper yield point. The constant load is called the lower yield point, and the elongation that occurs at constant load is called the yield-point elongation. The deformation occurring through ‘out the yield-point elongation is heterogeneous. At the upper yield Point, «discrete band of deformed metal, often readily visible, appears ata siess concentration such asa fillet Coincident with the formation ‘of the band, the load drops to the lower yield point. The band then Propagates slong the length ofthe specimen, causing the yield point longation Tn typical cases, several bands form at several pons of stress con- centration.

They are usually called Liders bands, Hartmann lines, or stretcher strains, and this type of deformation is sometimes referred to asthe Piobert effect They are visible and canbe aesthetically undesir- able. When several Liders bands are formed, the How eurve during the yiekd-point elongation is iregular, each jog corresponding to the for- mation ofa new Liders band. After the Lders bands have propagated to cover the entre length of the specimen test section, the flow will Jncrease with strain in the typical manner. This marks the end ofthe yield-point elongation. The transition from undeformed to deformed ‘matecal atthe Liters front ean be seen at low magnification in Fig. 6 ‘The rough surface areas are the Liders bands inthe low-carbon steel ‘These bands are also formes in certain sluminum-magnesium alloys, Nonlinear Segment of Continued Deformation Strain Hardening, The stress required to produce continued plastic deformation increases with increasing plastic strain; that is, the metal strain hardens. The volume of the specimen (area x length) remains constant during plastic deformation, AL = Aol, and as the specimen elongates, its cross-sectional area decreases uniformly along the gage length Inidally, the strain hardening more than compensstes for this ecrease in area, and the engineering stress (proportional to load P) continues to rise with increasing strain. Eventually, a point is reached ‘where the decrease in specimen cross-sectional area is greater than the increas in deformation load arising from strain hardening, This condi tion will be reached fist at some point in the specimen that i slightly ‘weaker than the rst.

The strain up to this point hss been uniform, as indicated on Fig. 1, Because the cross-sectional area is now decreasing far more rapidly than the ability to resist the deformation by strain hardening, the actual load required to deform the specimen decreases and the engineering sttess defined in Eq 1 continues to decrease until fracture oceuts, at X.

Actually, however, iti a vale of little Fundamental significance with regard tthe strength of a meta. For ductile metals, the tensile strength should be regarded as a measure of the maxim Toad that a metal can withstand under the very restrictive conditions of ‘uniaxial loading. This value bears lite elation tothe useful strength of the metal under the more complex conditions of stress that usually are ‘encountered For many years, it was customary to hase the strength of structural ‘members on the tensile strength, suitably reduced by a factor of safety, The current trend isto the more rational approach of basing the static design of ductile metals onthe yield strength. However, because of the long practice of using the tensile strength to describe the strength of materials, it has become a familiar property, and as such, i isa useful identification of a material in the same sense thatthe chemical compo- sition serves to identity a metal or alloy. Furthermore, because the fen- sile strength is easy to determine and isa reproducible property itis useful for the purposes of specification and for quality control of a product, Extensive empirical coreations between tensile strength and properties such as hardness and fatigue strength are often useful, For brite materials, the tensile strength is a valid design criterion, Measures of Ductility. Curealy, ductility is considered « qualita tive, subjective propecty of a material. In general, measurements of Auctlty are of interest in three respects (Ref 10) © To indicate the extent to which a metal can be deformed without {racture in metalworking operations such a8 rolling and extrusion ‘© TToindicate tothe designer the ability of the metal to flow plastically before fracture. A high ductility indicates that the material is “for giving” and likely to deform locally without fracture should the de- signer erin the stress calculation oF the prediction of severe loads, (© To serve as an indicator of changes in impurity level or processing conditions. Ductlity measurements may be specified to assess ma- terial quay, eventhough no direct relationship exists between the ‘ductility measurement and performance in service. ‘The conventional measures of ductility that arc obtained from the tension fest are the engineering strain at fracture, cy, (usualy called the elongation) and the reduetion in area at fracture, q. Hlongation and reduction in area usually are expressed as a percentage. Both of these properties are obtained after fracture by putting the specimen back together and taking measurements of the final length, Le and Binal spec- men cross section, Ar 7 An=Ae . es) Because an appreciable fraction ofthe plastic deformation will be ‘concentrated in the necked region ofthe tension specimen, the value of| Representation of Stress-Strain Behavior / 5 will depend on the gage length Lo over which the measurement was. taken (ee the section of ths article on ductility measurement in teasion testing) The smaller the gage Tength the greater the contribution to the ‘overall elongation from the necked region and the higher the value of fr Therefore, when reporting values of percentage elongation, the gage Tength, Zo, should always be given ‘Reduction in area does not sufer from this difficulty. These values can be converted into an equivalent 2ero-gage-length elongation, ey From the constancy of volume relationship for plastic deformation (AL = Aol) L oo 9) ‘This represents the elongation based on a very short gage length near the fracture. Another way to avoid the complications resulting from necking is fo base the percentage elongation on the uniform stain out to the point at which necking begins. The uniform elongation, ey, co relates well with stretch-forming operations. Because the engineering stress strain curve often is quite flat in the vicinity of necking, it may be difficult o establish the stein at maximum load without ambiguity. In this case, the method suggested in Ref 1 is useful ‘The toughness of « material is its ability to absorb energy up tothe point of fracture or rupture. The ability to withstand occasional stresses fbove the yield stress without fracturing is particularly desirable in parts such as feight-car couplings, gears, chains, and crane hooks, ‘Toughness is a commonly used concept that is difficult to precisely define. Toughness may be considered to be the total area under the Stress strain curve tothe point of fracture. This area, which is refered tos the moduls of toughness, Ur, is the amount of work per unit vol- tame that can be done on the mutetil without causing i to rupture Figure 3 shows the stres-srain curves for high- and low-toughness saterials. The high-carbon spring stel has a higher yield stength und tensile strength than the medium-cazbon structural steel. However, the structural steel is more ductile and has a greater total elongation, The total area under the stress-strain curve is greater forthe structural see; therefore, itis a tougher material. This ilustrates that toughness is a parameter that comprises both strength and ductility ‘True Stress-Strain Curves “The engineering stress-strain curve does not give a true indication of the deformation characteristics of a metal, ecause i is based entirely on the orginal dimensions of the specimen and these dimensions change continously during the test. Also, a ductile metal that is pulled in tension bbecomes unstable and necks down during the course ofthe test. Because the cross sectional area ofthe specimen is decreasing rapidly at this stage in the test, the load required to continue deformation lessens. "The average stress based on the original area likewise decreases, and this produces the downturn in the engineering stress-strain curve beyond the point of maximum load, Actually, the metal continues to stain harden to fracture, so thatthe tess required to produce further defor ‘mation should also increase If the rue stess, based on the actual eross- sectional area of the specimen, is used, the stress-strain curve increases ‘continuously to fracture. Ifthe stain measurement is also based on instantaneous measurement, che curve that i obtained is known as true- stresgrue-sran curve. Flow Curve. The «me scres-strain curve js also known as a flow curve, beeause it represents the basic plastc-flow characteristics of the ‘material.

Frequently, the flow curve is linear from mani- mum load to fractare, while in other cases its slope continuously decreases to fracture. The formation of a necked region or mild notch introduces triaxial stresses that make it difficult to determine accurately the longitudinal tensile stress fom the onset of necking until fracture ‘occurs. This concept is discussed in greater detail in the section “Corrected Stess-Stran Curves” in this anicle. The following param ers usually are determined from tho trve-stress/tre-stain curv. ‘The true stress at maximum load comesponds to the true tensile strength.

Ths effect is ‘opposed by the gradual decrease inthe cross-sectional area of the spec- ‘men as it elongates. Necking or localized deformation begins at max- ‘mum load, where the incroase in stress due to decrease inthe cross- sectional ara ofthe specimen becomes greater than the increase in the Toad-carzying ability of the metal due to strain hardening, This condi- tion of instability leading to localized deformation is defined by the condition that Pisa its maximum, dP. , ea) From te eons olan eosin = a and fm ns cotioe 4 32): oe cea39 soit ata pont es nai a) Se oe a $ ” =| apie Fig. 10, Gopi option rch crion the pil ego a ‘tum lod canbe cred Forth tuestestnasatan cave y finding lahheponton te cane hangs sng o unity or the pen hee doe = Fig, 11 Comicon othe derision fh pit of sen 8 / Atlas of Stress-Strain Curves Therefore, the point of necking at maximum load can be obtained from the true-stress/irie-strain curve by finding the point on the curve hav inga subtangent of unity (Fig. 10a) or the point where the rate of strain hardening equals the stess (Fig. 106).

Therefore, the average true stress atthe neck, which is determined by dividing the axial tensile load by the minimum cross-sectional area of the specimen at the neck, is higher than the stress that would be required to cause flow if simple tension prevailed ig, 12 Sues dtbion atthe rack ofa tetle specimen. a) Geomety of Fig 12 veedrepon fishes cunt of heels eso an es ate nek, EF Sess acing on eee apo othe esi the ‘lt dct: heal sro, he cave ss igure 12 illustrates the geometry at the necked region and the stresses developed by this localized deformation, Ris the radius of cur= ‘ature ofthe neck, whieh can be measured ether by projecting the con ‘our ofthe necked region on a screen or by using # tapered, conical radius gage.

This is Decause the total txtension consists of two components: the uniform extension up 10 recking and the localized extension once necking begins (Fig. 1). The «extent of uniform extension depends on the metallurgical condition of the material (Whrough ) and the effect of specimen size and shape on the development of the neck. The shorter the gage length, the greater the influence of localized ‘deformation atthe neck on the otal elongation of the gage length.

"Numerous attempts have eon made to rationalize the strain distri= bution in the tension test. Perhaps the most general conclusion that can be drawn is that geometrically similar specimens develop geometr- cally similar necked regions. ‘Further details on the necking phenomenon can be found inthe arti- cle "Mechanical Behavior under Tensile and Compressive Loads” in Mechanical Testing and Evaluation, Volume 8 of the ASM Handbook (Ref 25). Notch Tensile Test. Ducilty measurements on standard smooth ten sile specimens do not always reveal metallurgical or environmental ‘changes that lead to reduced local ductility. The tendency for reduced ‘doctility inthe presence ofa triaxial stress field and steep stress gradients (uch a8 arise a a notch) i called notch sensitivity. A common way of ‘evaluating notch sensitivity is tension test using notched specimen, Compression Testing ‘The compression test consists of deforming a cylindrical specimen to produce a shorter ylinder of larger diameter (upsetting). The com- pression testis a convenient method for determining the stress-strain response of materials at large strains (¢ > 0.5) because the testis not subject tothe instability of necking that occurs in a tension test. Also, itmay be convenient t0 use the compression test because the specimen, is relatively easy to make, and it does not require a large amount of material. The compression testis frequently used in conjunction with evaluating the workability of materials, especially at elevated tempera ture, because most deformation processes, such as forging, havea high ‘component of compressive stress. The test is also used with brittle ‘materials, which are difficult to machine into test specimens and diffi- cult to tensile test in perfect alignment "There are two inhctent difficulties wit the compression tes that must be overcome by the test technique: buckling of th specimen and barel- ing of the specimen. Both conditions cause nonuniform stess and strain lstribation in the specimen that make it dificult to analyze the results. Buckling is a mode of failure characterized by an unstable lateral material deflection caused by compressive stresses. Buckling is con trolled by selecting a specimen geometry with alow length-4o-diameter ratio, /D should be less than 2, and a compression specimen with LID = Lis often used, It also is important to have a very well-aligned load train and to ensure that the end faces ofthe specimen are parallel and perpendicular to the oad axis (Ref 27) Often a special alignment fix ture is used with the testing machine to ensure an accurate load path (Rel 28). Barreling isthe generation of a convex surface on the exterior of a cylinder that is deformed in compression, The cross section of such a specimen is barrel shaped. Burelin is caused by the ition between the end faces of the compression specimen and the anvils that apply the Toad. As the cylinder decreases in eight (h), it wants to increase in siameter (D) because the volume of an incompressible material must remain constant xin Bik, aks.

Figure 16 is an ‘example, The modulus of elasticity canbe visually estimated on the in- ‘ear segment of the stress-strain curve as slightly more than 280 MPa/4 > 0,001 = 70,000 MPa or 70 GPa (40 ksi/4 X 0.001 = 10,000 ksi, o 10 X 10® psi). This corresponds tothe constant value (vertical line) on the tangent modulus curves up to the proportionality limit. At higher sires, the stress-strain curves flatten and the tangent modulus curves eerease in value. Torsional Testing Torsion tests can be cartied out on most materials to determine mechanical properties such as modulus of elasticity in shear, shear yield strength, ultimate shear strength, modulus of rapture in shear, and ‘ductility. The torsion tet can also be conducted on full-size parts (shafts, axes, and pipes) and structures (beams and frames) t0 deter- ‘mine ther response to torsional loading.

The shear stress versus shear strain curve ean be determined from simultaneous measurements ofthe torque and angle of twist ofthe test specimen over a predetermined gage length ‘When converted from torque (in units of newton-meters or inch pounds) and angular displacement (in degrees or radians) torsional stress-strain has the same units as engineering sirest-strain, but the variance from “true” stress-strain i typically much less. On cylindi- cal specimen that does not buckle, the difference is 5% or less from engineering to “trac” stross-strain, even i the plastic (nonlinear) range. ‘There is evidence that torsion testing of hollow tubes is one of the better ways to determine the effects of strain, strain rate and tempers ture on the flow stress of materials over the range of these variables usually encountered inthe metal working process.

Relative to room-temperature (RT) fests, most materials become stronger, but less ductile, at lower temperatures, and ‘more ductile, but Weaker, at higher temperatures. There are anomalous behaviors such as blue britleness. Carbon stels generally exhibit an increase in strength and a reduction of ductility and toughness at tem- peratures around 300 °C (570 °F). Because such temperatures produce ‘1 blush temper color on the suzface of the specimen, this problem has been called blue britleness. Typically, brittleness iS associated with ‘cold-temperature behavior Speed of Test. ASTM E 8 (Ref 31) ists five ways of defining the speed ofthe test: ‘© Rate of straining the specimen, deft (© Rate of stressing the specimen, dS/de Rate of the separation ofthe test machine heads during the test © Elapsed time for completing part or all ofthe test f¢ Free-nunning crosshead speed (speed of machine heads when un- loaded) Strain Rate. Average strain rates for most tension tests range between 10°? and 10° +", Greater strain rates (10! and 10? s-!) are considered dynamic tess. For a spocimen of initial gage length Lo and ‘deformed length L, the specific deformation rate is: Lae =I) ai a th) If the deformation occurs homogeneously throughout the specimen, then the specific deformation rate corresponds everywhere tothe strain rate. However, ifthe deformation is nonhomogeneous, then the strain {and strain rate) varies the specimen length, and the specific deforma- tion rate represents the spatial average strain rate. A well-known exan- ple of nonhomogeneous deformation is the propagation of deformation bands called Llders bands. Stress Rate, Figure 17 illastrates the differences in curves constructed from constant stress increments and constant srain increment. Slow Speeds. Under relatively slow straining, most materials arc assumed to transfer the heat generated by plastic deformation to their surroundings: that is, the straining is assumed to be isothermal (no change of temperature). The degree to which slow tension tests remain ‘wuly isothermal has been investigated (Ref 32). The flow stress, which is the uniaxial stress needed to continue plastic deformation of the material ata given stage of atest, is then assumed to depend only on strain and strain rte, “The strain-hardening parameter m has been defined. From Eq 26: io. ode aay In an analogous manne, the strain-rate sensitivity parameter m can be defined as: 448) Both n and m aro functions of strain and strain rate. m can be nega tive under some conditions. Hossever, average values frequently are selected for these parameters, which are then treted as constants. Values of m usually are between 0.1 and 0.5 for metals; they are ‘determined from, but not identical to, strain-hardening rates.

Under such conditions, these matri- als can be deformed to extremely large stuins and are called super- plastic metals. High Rote Testing. For extremely high rates of testing, itis com- ‘monly assumed that deformation occurs under adiabatic (no heat trans fee) conditions. Plastic work is mostly (about 90%) converted to heat. ‘The remainder is inelastically storod as changes in defect structure. In high-speed tests, this heat raises the temperature of the material Consequently, the material properties are changed. This is another ‘major complication in analyses of high-speed tests, ‘Consequences of testing over a wide spectrum of strain rates are summarized in Fig. 18 (Ref 33) Hysteresis. Ifa specimen is loaded past its yield point and then unloaded, or loaded in reverse, subsequent testing on the specimen ‘would result in a different patter of behavior. Figure 19 shows this effect. The specimen is loaded initially to point A. The solid line rep resents the behavior of the virgin sample. If instead, the sample were unloaded at point A, the path of unloading is parallel to the inital load Path (dotted fine). There is some permanent deformation (residual Strain), and the area is redetermined as A. When reloaded, the dotted line is retraced and the yield point is now higher duo to strain harden- ing. If this unloading and reloading were done again at point B, the dashed line indicates the behavior. Figure 19 illustrates the effec of stopping and restarting atest. It also points toa consideration whea a test sample is machined from failed (©) yete nardening (xed behavior part. If the testpicce were subjected to deformation prior tothe failure, ‘the properties obtained from the test should not be equated tothe orig: inal material properties (Ref 34), If the prior history of the est specimen includes compression, a hy teresis is present, know as the Bauschinger effec, This is lstated ia Fig 20. The initial tensile loading i to about 1% strain. The specimen ‘is unloaded and reloaded in compression to 1% strain (measured on the second scale onthe x-axis). On unloading and reloading in tension, the shape of the stress-strain curve is significantly diferent than the origi ral. Aguin the prior deformation of atest sample wil affect its behav: ior (Ref 34). Figure 21 shows the two types of hysteresis possible in titanium alloys, one with load reversal, and one with load application, rest, and reapplication, Nature of Loading, Figure 22 illustrates a stress-strain loop under controlled constantstrain cycling in a low-cycle fatigue test. During initia loading, the stress-strain curve is O-A-B, with yielding begin= fing about A. Upon unloading. yielding begins in compression at & lower stress C due to the Bausehinger effect. In reloading in tension, & hnysteress loop develops. The dimensions of this loop are described by its width Ae (the total strain range) and its height Ao (he sitess range) The total strain range Ae consists of an elastic strain component A = OVE and a plastic strain component Af. The width of the hysteresis loop depends on the level of cyclic stain, When the level of eyelic strain is small, the hysteresis loop becomes very narrows. For tests com ducted under constant Ae, the stress range Ac usually changes with an increasing number of eycies. Annealed materials undergo cyclic strain hardening so that Ac increases With the numberof eyeles and then fev ls off after about 100 strain cycles. The larger the value of Ae, the freater the increase in stress range. Materials that are initially cold Representation of Stress-Strain Behavior / 15 © 1 — { 7 i ae ® Fig, 25.

Thus, through eyelic hardening and softening, some intermediate strength level is atsined that represents a ‘Steady-state condition (in which case the stress required to enforce the controlled strain does not vary significantly) Monotonic. Some metals are cyclically stble, in which ease their ‘monotonic stress-strain behavior adequately describes their cyclic response, Cyclic. For other materials the steady-state condition is usually achieved in about 20 to 40% ofthe total fatigue life in ether hardening ‘oF softening materials. The eyclic behavior of metals is best described in terms ofa stress-strain hysteresis loop a illustrated in Fig. 22. (Changes in stress response of a metal oceur relatively rapidly during the first several percent of the total reversals to failure.

Failure of a specimen is defined, (ypi- cally, as complete separation into two distinct pieces. Generally, the diameter of specimens ate approximately 6 to 10 mm (0.25 10 (0375 in). In actuality, there isa “propagation” period included in this ‘efiition of failure. Other definitions of failure appear in ASTM E60, "The steady-state stest response, measured at approximately 50% of the life to failure, is thereby abained. These stress values are then plo ted at the appropriate strain levels to obtain the cyclic stress-strain ‘curve. One would typically test approximately ten or more companion specimens, The eyelic stress-strain curve can be compared directly to the monotonic of tensile stess-srain curve to quantitatively assess cyclically induced changes in mechanical behavior.

The Rambers-Osgood Method is 3 method of modeling stress-strain curves. An equation (deal a simple fone) for the stress-strain curve is necessary for finding a quantitative expression forthe available energy in fracture studies.

The slope of the initial linear portion of the stress-strain curve (E= yh) is the modulus of elasticity. Many metals, Particularly annealed low-carbon steel, show a localized, heterogeneous type of transition from elastic to plastic deformation that produces a yield point rather than a curve with a gradual transition from elastic to plastic behavior. The load increases steadily with elastic strain, then drops suddenly. After the upper yield point, several discrete bands of deformed metal, called Liders bands, appear at stress concentrations, usually at about 45° to the tensile axis. Load fluctuates about some approximately constant value, and then rises with further strain. Source: GE. Dieter, Mechanical Behavior ander Tensile and Compressive Loads, Mechanica!

To obtain the shear strain in the specimen, the elastic rotation of the bar between the two differential transformers is subtracted from the total rotation. This elastic rotation is measured by cementing the loading bars together without a specimen and loading them quasi-statically. Typical test results obtained at a variety of temperatures using the Kolsky bar to test 1020 steel at a quasi-static stain rate of 5 x 10-Y/s and dynamic strain rate of 10% are given. Source: A.

Tested at 700 °C (1290 °F), Stess- strain curves for solid torsion specimens of 3.3% Si steel showing effect of gage length to diameter ratio (Lid) on flow stress at high strain rates when adiabatic heating Cecurs. The flow curves are in terms of von Mises effective stressstrain (G — 8), defined by = V3t, and @ =1'/-V3 where tT is the shear-stress/shear- strain curve obtained in torsion testing. In both solid bars and tubular specimens, the gage ength-to-diameter ratio may have a marked effect on the actual specimen temperature during moderate-speed T'= 107 to 10 s* torsion tests because ofthe effects of heat conduction Because ofthis, flow curves derived from data obtained at these rates tend to show a dependence on the length-to- diameter ratio (Ld). Flow curves for large Ld specimens tend to fll below those for small id ratio, in which ‘most ofthe deformation heat is dissipated into the shoulders. Interpretation of fracture strain data from such tests should take into account not only the nominal Gnitial) test temperature, but also the temperature history during the test.
