Discuss the variations in nature of the stress-strain graphs of steel and aluminium.
Summarize the way in which fine-grain microstructures behave with regard to low temperature and room temperature strength and toughness. Why not make all metals as small-grained as possible?
Strength of a metal can be measured by the internal resistance or stress that it can
withstand. Using a simple sketch, illustrate the loading of compressive stress and tensile
stress on a metallic sample.
