Given your understanding of what initiates and controls failure in materials, which of the following will increase the failure strength or lifetime of a test piece or component and why? a. Decreasing the difference between the maximum and minimum stress values, as this effects the stress concentration factor b. Decreasing the temperature below the brittle-ductile transition temperature, to make it harder C. Polishing to reduce surface defects Od. Increasing its volume, to give a larger cross sectional area Oe. Increasing the grain size so there are less grain boundaries to initiate failure
A laminated [0/90/0/90]s graphite/epoxy beam is 1 mm thick, is 20 mm wide, and has 0.125 mm thick plies. The lamina properties are E1 = 180 GPa, E2 = 10 GPa, ν12 = 0.28, G12 = 7 GPa Xt = 1700 MPa, Xc = 1400 MPa, Yt = 40 MPa, Yc = 230 MPa (a) Determine the flexural modulus of the beam (b) How could the flexural modulus be improved without changing the ply materials, the number of plies, or the ply orientations? (c) Using the Maximum Stress Criterion for each ply, determine the magnitude of the maximum allowable bending moment that the beam can withstand. Which ply fails first?
A structural component in the shape of a flat plate 24.3 mm thick is to be fabricated from a metal alloy for which the yield strength and plane strain fracture toughness values are 533 MPa and 22.0 MPa-m1/2, respectively. For this particular geometry, the value of Y is 1.3. Assuming a design stress of 0.4 times the yield strength, calculate the critical length of a surface flaw.   What formulas do i use ? And how do i use them?
