A cylindrical metal specimen having an original diameter of 12.8 mm and gauge length of 50.80 mm is pulled in tension until fracture occurs. The diameter at the point of fracture is 6.60 mm (0.260 in.), and the fractured gauge length is 72.14 mm. Calculate the ductility in terms of percent reduction in area and percent elongation.

%Reduction in area = 73.41%

%Reduction in elongation = 42.20%

Explanation:

Given

Original diameter = 12.8 mm

Gauge length = 50.80mm

Diameter at the point of fracture = 6.60 mm (0.260 in.)

Fractured gauge length = 72.14 mm.

%Reduction in Area is given as:

((do/2)² - (d1/2)²)/(do/2)²

Calculating percent reduction in area

do = 12.8mm, d1 = 6.6mm

So,

%RA = ((12.8/2)² - 6.6/2)²)/(12.8/2)²

%RA = 0.734130859375

%RA = 73.41%

Calculating percent reduction in elongation

%Reduction in elongation is given as:

((do) - (d1))/(d1)

do = 72.14mm, d1 = 50.80mm

So,

%RA = ((72.24) - (50.80))/(50.80)

%RA = 0.422047244094488

%RA = 42.20%

answer: copyright is extremely important to authors because it constitutes the ownership of one's original work. having ownership means you can protect your work as intellectual property and control who makes money from it—which is you and those to whom you assign rights.
