body, the body tends to change its shape
or deform.The body is said to be strained.

Direct or Normal Strain
When loads are applied to a body,
some deformation will occur resulting to
a change in dimension.
Consider a bar, subjected to axial
tensile loading force, F. If the bar
extension is dl and its original length
(before loading) is L, then tensile strain
is:
Direct or Normal Strain Contd.

i.e. = dl/L

As strain is a ratio of lengths, it is
dimensionless.
Similarly, for compression by amount,
dl: Compressive strain = - dl/L
Note: Strain is positive for an increase
in dimension and negative for a
reduction in dimension.
1.3 Shear Stress and Shear Strain
Shear stresses are produced by
equal and opposite parallel forces
not in line.
The forces tend to make one part
of the material slide over the other
part.
Shear stress is tangential to the
area over which it acts.

Shear strain is the distortion produced by shear stress on
an element or rectangular block as above. The shear
strain, (gamma) is given as:

couple must be brought into action.

faces QR and PS.

Thus: Whenever a shear stress occurs on a
plane within a material, it is automatically
accompanied by an equal shear stress on the
perpendicular plane.
The direction of the complementary shear
stress is such that their couple opposes that of
the original shear stresses.
1.4
Volumetric Strain
Hydrostatic stress refers to tensile or
compressive stress in all dimensions
within or external to a body.
Hydrostatic stress results in change in
volume of the material.
Consider a cube with sides x, y, z. Let
dx, dy, and dz represent increase in
length in all directions.
i.e. new volume = (x + dx) (y + dy) (z +
dz)
Volumetric
Strain Contd.
Neglecting products of small quantities:
New volume = x y z + z y dx + x z dy + x y dz
Original volume = x y z
= z y dx + x z dy + x y dz
Volumetric strain, =z y dx + x z dy + x y dz
x y z
= dx/x + dy/y + dz/z

Also: (i) The strain on the diameter of a circle
is equal to the strain on the circumference.
(ii) The strain on the area of a circle, is equal
to twice the strain on its diameter.
(iii) Strain on volume of a sphere, is equal to
three times the strain on its diameter.

1.5
Elasticity and Hooke’s Law
All solid materials deform when they are
stressed, and as stress is increased,
deformation also increases.
If a material returns to its original size and
shape on removal of load causing deformation,
it is said to be elastic.
If the stress is steadily increased, a point is
reached when, after the removal of load, not all
the induced strain is removed.
This is called the elastic limit.
Hooke’s
Law
States that providing the limit of proportionality
of a material is not exceeded, the stress is
directly proportional to the strain produced.
If a graph of stress and strain is plotted as load
is gradually applied, the first portion of the
graph will be a straight line.
The slope of this line is the constant of
proportionality called modulus of Elasticity, E or
Young’s Modulus.
It is a measure of the stiffness of a material.
Hooke’s Law
Modulus of Elasticity, E =
Directstress

Also: For Shear stress: Modulus of rigidity or shear modulus, G =

Also: Volumetric strain,
is proportional to hydrostatic
stress, within the elastic range
i.e. : called bulk modulus.

Factor of Safety
The load which any member of a machine
carries is called working load, and stress
produced by this load is the working stress.
Obviously, the working stress must be less
than the yield stress, tensile strength or the
ultimate stress.
This working stress is also called the
permissible stress or the allowable stress or the
design stress.
Factor of Safety Contd.
Some reasons for factor of safety
include the inexactness or inaccuracies
in the estimation of stresses and the
non-uniformity of some materials.
Factor of safety =
Ultimateoryieldstress
Designorworkingstress
Note: Ultimate stress is used for materials e.g.
concrete which do not have a well-defined yield point,
or brittle materials which behave in a linear manner up
to failure. Yield stress is used for other materials e.g.
steel with well defined yield stress.
1.7 Practical Class Details
Each Student will have two practical
classes: one on :
Stress/strain characteristics and
Hardness and impact tests.
(i)The stress/strain characteristics
practical will involve the measurement
of the characteristics for four metals,
copper, aluminium, steel and brass
using a tensometer.
Practical Class Details Contd.
The test will be done up to fracture of the
metals.
This test will also involve the accurate
measurement of the modulus of elasticity for
one metal.
There is the incorporation of an
extensometer for accurate measurement of
very small extensions to produce an
accurate stress-strain graphs.
The test will be done up to elastic limit.
Practical Class Details Contd.
(ii)The hardness test will be done
using the same four metals and
the Rockwell Hardness test.
The impact test with the four
metals will be carried out using the
Izod test.
1.8MATERIALS
TESTING
1.8.1.Tensile Test: This is the most common
test carried out on a material.
It is performed on a machine capable of
applying a true axial load to the test
specimen. The machine must have:
(i) A means of measuring the applied load
and
(ii)An extensometer is attached to the test
specimen to determine its extension.
Tensile Test Contd.
Notes:1.For iron or steel, the limit of
proportionality and the elastic limit are
virtually same but for other materials like
non-ferrous materials, they are different.
2. Up to maximum or ultimate stress, there is
no visible reduction in diameter of specimen
but after this stress, a local reduction in
diameter called necking occurs and this is
more well defined as the load falls off up to
fracture point.
Original area of specimen is used for
analysis.

The percentage of elongation and percentage reduction in area give an indication of th e
ductility of the material i.e. its ability to withstand strain without fracture occurring.
Proof Stress
High carbon steels, cast iron and most of the
non-ferrous alloys do not exhibit a well defined
yield as is the case with mild steel.
For these materials, a limiting stress called
proof stress is specified, corresponding to a
non-proportional extension.
The non-proportional extension is a specified
percentage of the original length e.g. 0.05,
0.10, 0.20 or 0.50%.
Determination of Proof Stress
PProof Stress
Stress
The proof stress is obtained by drawing AP parallel to the initial
slope of the stress/strain graph, the distance, OA being the strain
corresponding to the required non-proportional extension e.g. for
0.05% proof stress, the strain is 0.0005.

1.8.2Hardness
Test
The hardness of a material is determined by
its ability to withstand indentation. There are
four major hardness tests.
(i)Rockwell Hardness Test: This uses
an indentor with a 120
o
conical diamond with a
rounded apex for hard materials, or steel ball
for softer materials.
A minor load, F is applied to cause a small
indentation as indicated in Fig. (a) below.
The major load, F
m
is then applied and
removed after a specified time to leave load F
still acting. The two stages are shown as (b)
and (c).
Rockwell Hardness Test
Hardness Test Contd.
Thus the permanent increase in the
depth of penetration caused by the
major loadis d mmThe Rockwell
hardness number, H
R
is:
H
R
= K - 500 d
Where: K is a constant with value of 100
for the diamond indentor and 130 for the
steel indentor.
1.8.3Impact
Testing
The toughness of a material is defined
as its ability to withstand a shock
loading without fracture. Two principal
impact tests are the:
Izod and the
Charpy tests.
A test specimen is rigidly supported
and is impacted by a striker attached to
a pendulum.
Impact Test Concluded
The difference in height from which a
pendulum is released and the height to
which it rises after impact gives a
measure of the energy absorbed by the
specimen and this is recorded on a dial
mounted on a tester.

Lateral Strain and Poisson’s Ratio
Under the action of a longitudinal stress,
a body will extend in the direction of the
stress and contract in the transverse or
lateral direction
(see Fig. below).
The reverse occurs under a compressive
load.

Poisson’s Ratio
Lateral strain is proportional to the longitudinal strain,
with the constant of proportionality called ‘Poisson’s ratio’ with symbol, .
1.10
Thermal Strain
Most structural materials expand when heated,
in accordance to the law: T
where is linear strain and
is the coefficient of linear expansion;
T is the rise in temperature.
That is for a rod of Length, L;
if its temperature increased by t, the extension,
dl = L T.
Thermal Strain Contd.
As in the case of lateral strains, thermal strains
do not induce stresses unless they are constrained.
The total strain in a body experiencing thermal stress
may be divided into two components:
Strain due to stress,
and
That due to temperature,
T
.

Principle
of Superposition
It states that the effects of several actions
taking place simultaneously can be
reproduced exactly by adding the effect of
each action separately.
The principle is general and has wide
applications and holds true if:
(i) The structure is elastic
(ii) The stress-strain relationship is linear
(iii) The deformations are small.

Note: In the case of shear strain,
there is no lateral strain, hence
the shear stress/shear strain
relationship is the same for both
unaxial and complex strain
systems.
Plain Stress and Plain Strain
A plain stress condition is said to exist when
stress in the z direction is zero.
The above equations may be applied for
but strain in the z direction is not zero.
Also plain strain condition exists when the
strain in z direction is zero.
Using strain in Z direction as zero in this
case does not mean that stress in the z
direction is zero.

Consider a compound bar, see (a) above of length, L consisting of 2
different materials (1) and (2) having coefficients of expansion
1
and
2
respectively with
1
>
2
. If the bar is subjected to a
1
uniform temperature rise, T and the right hand fixing released,
1
the bar (1) will expand more than (2) as shown in diagram (b).
However, because of the end fixing, free expansion cannot occur.
Diagram (c) shows that the end fixing must supply a force which
decreases the length of bar (1) and increases the length of bar (2)
until equilibrium is achieved at a common length.
As no external forces are involved, a self equilibrating
(balancing force system is created).
Temperature Stresses Contd.
Free expansions in bars (1) and (2) are LTandLT
1 2
respectively.
Due to end fixing force, F: the decrease in length of bar (1) is
FL
AE
11
and the increase in length of (2) is
FL
AE
22
.
At Equilibrium:
Note: As a result of Force, F, bar (1) will be in compression while (2) will be in tension.

Elastic Strain Energy
If a material is strained by a gradually
applied load, then work is done on the
material by the applied load.
The work is stored in the material in the form
of strain energy.
If the strain is within the elastic range of the
material, this energy is not retained by the
material upon the removal of load.
Elastic Strain Energy Contd.
Figure below shows the load-extension graph of a uniform bar.
The extension dl is associated with a gradually applied load, P
which is within the elastic range. The shaded area represents
the work done in increasing the load from zero to its value
Load

Work done = strain energy of bar = shaded area
Elastic Strain Energy Concluded
W = U = 1/2 P dl (1)
Stress, = P/A i.e P = A
Strain = Stress/E
i.e dl/L = /E , dl = (L)/E L= original length
Substituting for P and dl in Eqn (1) gives:
W = U = 1/2 A . ( L)/E =
2
/2E x A L
A L is the volume of the bar.
i.e U =
2
/2E x Volume
The units of strain energy are same as those of work i.e. Joules. Strain energy
per unit volume,
2
/2E is known as resilience. The greatest amount of energy that can
stored in a material without permanent set occurring will be when is equal to the
elastic limit stress.
Torsion
Consider a bar to be rigidly
attached at one end and
twisted at the other end by a
torque or twisting moment
T equivalent to F × d, which
is applied perpendicular to
the axis of the bar, as shown
in the figure. Such a bar is
said to be in torsion.

For a solid or hollow circular shaft
subject to a twisting moment T, the
torsional shearing stress τ at a distance
ρ from the center of the shaft is :
where J is the polar moment of inertia of the
section and r is the outer radius.

to a torque of 15 kip·ft. Determine the maximum shearing stress
and the angle of twist. Use G = 12 × 106 psi.
Solution:
2-What is the minimum diameter of a solid steel shaft that will not
twist through more than 3° in a 6-m length when subjected to a
torque of 12 kN·m? What maximum shearing stress is developed?
Use G = 83 GPa.
Solution:
Torsion of Thin-Walled Tubes
The torque applied to thin-walled tubes is expressed as :
where T is the torque in N·mm, A is the area enclosed by the
centerline of the tube (as shown in the stripefilled portion) in mm2,
and q is the shear flow in N/mm.
The average shearing stress across any
thickness t is :
Shear & Moment in Beams
DEFINITION OF A BEAM
A beam is a bar subject to forces or couples that lie in a plane containing
the longitudinal of the bar. According to determinacy, a beam may be
determinate or indeterminate.
STATICALLY
DETERMINATE BEAMS
Statically determinate beams are those beams in which the reactions of the
supports may be determined by the use of the equations of static equilibrium.
The beams shown below are examples of statically determinate beams.
STATICALLY
INDETERMINATE BEAMS
If the number of reactions exerted upon a beam exceeds
the number of equations in static equilibrium, the beam is
said to be statically indeterminate
The degree of indeterminacy is taken as the difference between the
umber of reactions to the number of equations in static equilibrium
that can be applied. In the case of the propped beam shown, there are
three reactions R1, R2, and M and only two equations (ΣM = 0 and
sum;Fv = 0) can be applied, thus the beam is indeterminate to the first
degree (3 – 2 = 1).
LOADS
APPLIED TO THE BEAM MAY CONSIST OF A
CONCENTRATED
LOAD (LOAD APPLIED AT A POINT), UNIFORM
LOAD,
UNIFORMLY VARYING LOAD, OR AN APPLIED COUPLE
OR
MOMENT. THESE LOADS ARE SHOWN IN THE FOLLOWING
