PROBLEMABNBºB1
Se ensaya a tracción una barra de sección circular de 2cm de diámetro y 10cm de longitud
built with a material exhibiting elastoplastic behavior characterized by a first elastic phase
lineal con módulo de Young igual a 2x106kgf/cm² and maximum elastic deformation of 0.2% and, prior to
the rupture, a second plastic period in which, without an increase in load compared to the previous period, the material
alcanza una deformación de 8 veces el valor de la deformación elástica. Se pide:
a) Graphical representation of the mechanical behavior of the material and the type of fracture it presents.
b) Elastic limit of the material.
c) Maximum tensile load at which the bar can be tested to work in the elastic regime.
d) Longitud de la barra bajo una carga de tracción de 100000 N.
e) If after reaching a deformation of 0.3% in the test we stop applying the load, calculate the length of
la barra tras la descarga. Representar gráficamente el proceso de carga-descarga.
f) Can the bar be rehearsed again? Justify your answer.

ANSWERS.-

a) For the graphical representation of mechanical behavior, it is necessary to know the stresses and
deformations of the elastic and plastic zone.
elastic= 0,2% = 0,002 (cm/cm) ; plastic =
8x0.002 = 0.016 (cm/cm)
elastic = E x elástica = 2 x 10 x 0.002 = 4000
6

(Kgf/cm ) ; assuming that 1 kgf= 10 N


2

elastic= 400 (MPa)

The rupture is plastic as the material in its graph shows significant deformations.

b) The elastic zone of the material is established when the stress is proportional to the strain and its value
maximum corresponds to the yield limit. From the previous question, it is established that the yield limit occurs
when: σelástica = 400 (MPa)

c)Pmax =σelástica xA = 4000 (Kgf/cm2) x (p x 22)/4 =12560 (Kgf)


Pmax = 12560(Kgf125600(N)

d)σ1 = tension for a tensile load of 100000 (N)


σ1= P/A = 100000/ (π x 0.022)/4 = 318.4 (MPa)
Then: σ1˂σelastic; this indicates that the bar under a load of 100000(N) is in regime
elastic.

Therefore: E = σ/ε => ε = σ/E = 318.4 MPa / 2x105MPa


ε = 0.0016 (cm/cm)
Additionally: ε = ∆L/L
And the final length is: Lf = L0 + ∆L = 10 + 0.016
=> ∆L = 0.0016 x 10 = 0.016 (cm)

Lf10,016 (cm)

e) The deformation at 0.3% exceeds the maximum in the elastic regime, which is 0.2%, so by removing the
carga, la barra solicitada recuperará su deformación elástica y queda con una remanente.

εremanente = εtotal – εelastic=0,003-0,002


0.001

εremnant=∆L/L => 0.001 = ∆L/L


=> ∆L = 0.001xL = 0.001x10 = 0.01 (cm)

Then the final length is: Lf = L0+ ∆L = 10 + 0.01


Lf10.01 (cm)

Yes, since the plastic deformation of the material prior to rupture has not been completed.

Largo = 200 mm
p = 1 mm (thread pitch)
Es 200 GPa
As 36 mm2
Ep= 7.5 GPa
Ap= 960 mm2

Compatibility equation np = number of turns (n) per the step of the


∆Ls + ∆Lp np (2) ring (p)

∆Lp = acortamiento del cilindro de polímero

Knowing that: E = σ/ε => ε = σ/E and ε = ∆L/L


=> ∆Ls= PsxL/EsxAs (3) and ∆Lp= PpxL/EpxAp (4). Substituting (3) and (4) into equation (2):

PsxL/EsxAs + Pp xL/Ep xAp = np (5). Solving with (1) and (5), we have:

Pp = 2npEsAsEpAp ; Then the effort of σp=Pp/Ap = 2npEsAsEp

A copper tube surrounds a steel bolt and the nut is turned until it is just snug (see fig.).
efforts are produced in steel and copper, respectively, if now the screw is tightened a quarter turn

In the case of a bolt, each turn of the nut will cause its movement along the bolt.
a distance equal to the pitch of the screw. Then the distance traveled by the nut is equal to the amount of
vueltas (no necesariamente un entero) por el paso. Así el giro de la tuerca puede estirar o comprimir un
body.
In this case, the displacement corresponds to: ¼ x 0.052 in = 0.013 in
Then the displacement in the system is:

Elongation of the bolt
Shortening of the nut
The force analysis provides us with an equilibrium equation where:
PT= PP(2)
This means that by adding the forces in the horizontal direction, the obvious fact is established that
that the compressive force in the copper tube (PT) is equal to the tensile force in the steel bolt (PP).
