Compressive strength is the capacity of a material
or structure to withstand axially directed pushing
forces. When the limit of compressive strength is
reached, materials,are crushed. Concrete can be
made to have high compressive strength, e.g.
many concrete structures have compressive
strengths in excess of 50 MPa, whereas a material
such as soft sandstone may have a compressive
strength as low as 5 or 10 MPa.
Measuring the compressive strength of a steel drum
Compressive strength is
often measured on a
universal testing
machine; these range
from very small table
top systems to ones
with over 53 MN
capacity.
The mass density or density of a material is defined
as its mass per unit volume. The symbol most often
used for density is ρ (the Greek letter rho). In some
cases (for instance, in the United States oil and gas
industry), density is also defined as its weight per
unit volume;although, this quantity is more properly
called specific weight. Different materials usually
have different densities, so density is an important
concept regarding buoyancy, purity and packaging.
Osmium and iridium are the densest known metal
elements at standard conditions for temperature and
pressure but not the densest materials.
Poisson's ratio (ν), named after Siméon Poisson, is
the ratio, when a sample object is stretched, of the
contraction or transverse strain (perpendicular to
the applied load), to the extension or axial strain (in
the direction of the applied load).
When a material is compressed in one direction, it
usually tends to expand in the other two directions
perpendicular to the direction of compression. This
phenomenon is called the Poisson effect. Poisson's
ratio ν (nu) is a measure of the Poisson effect. The
Poisson ratio is the ratio of the fraction (or percent)
of expansion divided by the fraction (or percent) of
compression, for small values of these changes.
Fatigue can be defined as progressive
fracture. It occurs when a mechanical
part is subjected to a repeated or cyclic
stress, such as vibration. Even when
the maximum stress never exceeds the
elastic limit, failure of the material can
occur even after a short time. With
some metals, such as titanium alloys,
fatigue can be avoided by keeping the
cyclic force below a certain level.
I. Identification
______1. These properties are described in terms of the types of force or stress
that the metal must withstand and how these are resisted.
______2. It is the property that enables a metal to resist deformation under
load. The ultimate strength is the maximum strain a material can
withstand.
______3. It is the property of a material to resist permanent indentation.
Because there are several methods of measuring this, the material is
always specified in terms of the particular test that was used to
measure this property.
______5. It is the property that enables a material to withstand shock and to be
deformed without rupturing.
______6. It is the ability of a material to return to its original shape after the
load is removed.
______7. It the ability of a material to deform permanently without breaking or
rupturing.
______8. It is the opposite of the property of plasticity. A brittle metal is one
that breaks or shatters before it deforms.
______9. It is the property that enables a material to stretch, bend, or twist
without cracking or breaking.
______10. The s_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ p_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ of a PM component usually
depends on several mechanical properties either alone or in
combination.
