Question | Answer |

What is Poisson's Ratio? | Poisson's Ratio (v) - Transverse Strain/Axial Strain. (Has no units). each material has its own poisson's ratio. values has to be between -1.0 and + 0.5. A V values of 0 means that a sample would squash straight down without spreading out to the sides |
What are Auxetics? | These are materials that have negative Poisson ratios (-ve v). If you try to stretch them, they actually get wider. |
Explain the Force-Extension Graph? | The Area under the Force-Extension graph is work done per unit volume. Since workdone is equal to the applied force x by movement (extension) in the direction of the force. |
Analysis of a Stress -Strain Graph. | The gradient is Stiffness.The steeper the line the greater the stiffness of the material. |
who is nardia pyne? | nardia pyne is the coolest |
What is Brittle Fracture? | characterized by very low plastic deformation |
What is Toughness? | ability of a material to resist fracture. Toughness has units of energy per volume. |
Stress- Srain Graph. | Limit of proportionality - beyond which no longer obeys hooke's law. Elastic Limit - Beyond which sample will be permanently distorted. Yield stress - beyond which there is a significant increase in the ease of distortion. |
Stress- Srain Graph 2. | Ultimate Tensile Stress - largest stress that the sample can withstand. Breaking Stress - at which the 2 ends of the sample are seperated. |
