    Characteristic Behavior Under Stress

    • The main characteristics of CE materials under stress are ductility,


    brittleness, stiffness, flexibility, toughness, malleability, and hardness.

    5
    Characteristic Behavior Under Stress

    • Ductility:
    • A measure of a material's ability to
    undergo significant plastic deformation
    before rupture or breaking.
    • Example: copper and wrought iron.
    • Brittle materials have little or no plasticity.
    They fail suddenly without warning.
    ØExamples: Cast iron, stone, brick and
    concrete are comparatively brittle
    materials having a considerable
    amount of plasticity.
    6
    Characteristic Behavior Under Stress

    Stiffness:
    • Stiffness is an indicator of the tendency
    for an element to return to its original
    form after being subjected to a force.
    • Stiff materials have a high modulus of
    elasticity permitting small deformation
    for a given load.
    • Flexible materials on the other hand
    have low modulus of elasticity and bend
    considerably without breakdown.
    7
    Characteristic Behavior Under Stress

    • Toughness depends upon strength and flexibility.

    • Malleable materials can be hammered into sheets without rupture. It


    depends upon ductility and softness of material. Copper is the most
    malleable material.

    • Hard materials resist scratching and denting, for example cast iron and
    chrome steel. Materials resistant to abrasion such as manganese are also
    known as hard materials.
