Behaviour of Stress Strain Relationship of Few Metals

Abstract

The aim of this study is to examine the uniaxial tensile strength of three specimens of mild steel, brass and aluminium is examined. Tension tests enable the determination and prediction of the deformation/deflection response of the material properties and elastic modulus. The values of Young’s Modulus for Elasticity (E) for mild steel, brass, and aluminium have been successfully determined from laboratory experiments. Also, the stress and strain of the materials were graphically shown to have good correlations between theory and experimental values and compositions. The results further show that steel is more suitable for structural application than brass and aluminium respectively, because of their high E Modulus rating. It therefore implies that steel can withstand more tension. The result obtained from the study such as tensile strength, yield strength etc. have been recorded. Also, the related theory has been indicated.
