Strain Energy

Modulus of toughness & modulus of resilience

Increasing the strain rate increase strength, but

decrease ductility

Impact Test

• Charpy V-notch & Izod tests most common

• Energy calculated by pendulum height difference

• Charpy – metals, Izod - plastics

Fracture Surface

Different heat treatments of AISI 4140 steel – harder on left

Trend in Impact Behavior

• Toughness is generally proportional to ductility• Also dependent on strength, but not so strongly• Brittle Fractures

– Lower energy– Generally smooth in appearance

• Ductile Fracture– Higher energy– Rougher appearance on interior with 45° shear lips

Effect of Temperature

Decrease temperature increase strength, but decrease ductility

Ductile-Brittle Transition

Brittle Failure

Jiangyu Li, University of Washington

Failure Criteria

• Materials assumed to be perfect:– Brittle Materials

• Max Normal Stress

– Ductile Materials• Max Shear Stress• Octahedral Shear

Stress

• Materials have flaw or crack in them:– Linear Elastic Fracture

Mechanics (LEFM)• Stress intensity factor (K)

describes the severity of the existing crack condition

• If K exceeds the Critical stress intensity (Kc), then failure will occur
