The starting specimen had a (92ge length = 20 in and an area 50 sa. in. At one point in the tensile test, the gage length '= 25 inand the corresponding engineering stress = 24000 ps; at another pont inthe test rior to necking, the gage length = 3.2 in and the corresponding engineering stress = 28000, 5. Determine the svengthcoefcient and strain-hardening exponent. To summarize, lo=20in AO= 5059 in. L125 imengineeing stress = 24000 psi L2=3.2 in engineering stress 28000 psi Here's my solution “ac the frst point given, we can find engineering san by e = (LI-LOVLO = (2.5 - 2.0/2.0 =.25 -We an then use the engineering stress and the engineering strain to find the tue stress by the relationship tue stress engineering stress ({vengineering strain) = 24000(s9.25) = 30000 psi The tre sani given by ln (1/10) = In (2.5/2.0) = 22 * Forte second point, engineering strain = (L2-LOYLO = (3.2-2.0y2.0 6 Hence, vue sess = engineering sess (engineering stain) = 2800041») = 44800 psi Tue strain i in (L2/L0)= (82/20) = tn 3.6 = 47 “So we now have two points on our tue stress-strain curve: (2, 30000) and (47, 44800). ‘The book plots these points using a log scale and then finds the slope to determine the strain hardening exponent.
