EXAMPLE A cylindrical specimen of steel having an original diameter of 12.8 mm is tensile tested to fracture and found to have an engineering fracture strength σf of 460 MPa. If its cross-sectional diameter at fracture is 10.7 mm, determine: (a)the ductility in terms of percent reduction in area. (b)the true stress at fracture. 30% 660 MPa

HARDNESS The ability of a material to resist localised plastic deformation. Originally comparison between materials (how easy was it for A to damage B). Mohs scale. 1 for Talc 10 for Diamond
HARDNESS TEST Most common form of mechanical measurement Cheap and no specific specimen needed Non destructive Other engineering quantise can be derived from it such as tensile strength

The most common form of harness test is the Rockwell harness test, In this test as with nearly all harness test an indenter is used to deform (damage) a material. The depth the indenter penetrates determines the harness of the material. There are several Rockwell harness scales and these depend on the shape and size of the indenter with the amount of force used to produce the indent. The Rockwell test uses steel spheres of diameters 1/16, 1/8, 1/4, 1/2 of an inch along with a diamond cone which is used for very hard materials. There are two types of Rockwell test, the Rockwell and the superficial Rockwell. The loads used for the Rockwell are 10 Kg for soft materials and 60, 100 and 150 Kg for harder materials. The loads used for the superficial are 3 Kg, 15 Kg, 30 kg, 45 Kg. These being assigned the numbers X, N, T, W. When a Rockwell test is performed a number and a letter are assigned to the material. The letter defines the test that was performed and a number which defines the harness of that material on the scale. The number ranges from 0-120, however <20 and >100 the scale overlaps with the previous and next scale, so that materials could be measure on two different scales. It is always best to use the scale which delivers a value in the mid range and this is the most accurate. The Rockwell scales can be used on materials from Metals to plastics. Some care needs to be taken when applying the tests. The sample must be thick enough to allow for all of the indentation to be expressed in the upper region of the sample. The spreading of any defects caused by the indentation must not reach the bottom surface, to insure this the sample must be 10x thicker than the indentation. The sample should be smooth and a distance of more than three indentation lengths should be left between the indentation are and sample edges or ridges.
