STRENGTH OF MATERIALS
Flanged Bolt Coupling
consists of flanges rigidly attached to the ends of the shaft and bolted together. The torque is transmitted by the shearing force P created in the bolts.
breaking strength
rupture strength
Working stress
the actual stress of a material under a given loading.
Elastic limit
the limit beyond which the material will no longer go back to its original shape when the load is removed.
Allowable stress
the maximum safe stress that a material can carry.
Elastic limit
the maximum stress that may be developed such that there is no permanent or residual deformation when the load is entirely removed.
Yield point
the point at which material will have an appreciable elongation or yielding without any increase in load
Strain
the ratio of the change in length caused by the applied force, to the original length.
Poisson's Ratio
the ratio of the sidewise/lateral deformation (or strain) to the longitudinal deformation (or strain).
plastic range
the region from proportional limit P to rupture strength R
elastic range
the region in stress-strain diagram from origin O to proportional limit P.
Modulus of Resilience
the work done on a unit volume of material as the force is gradually increased from origin O to proportional limit P, in N-m/m^3. This may be calculated as the area under the stress-strain curve from the origin O to up to the elastic limit E.
tensile strength
ultimate strength
Bending stress
varies directly with the bending moment
Shearing stress
varies directly with the shear
Punching shear
A circular slug is about to be punched out of a plate, the resisting area is similar to the milled edge of a coin.
Thin walled pressure vessels
A cylindrical tank carrying a gas or fluid under a pressure is subjected to tensile forces, which resist bursting, developed across longitudinal and transverse sections.

Categories of Stress
Strength of Materials
Deals with the nature and effects of stresses in the parts of engineering structures.
Bearing stress
Differs from compressive stress, as it is an internal stress caused by compression.
Shearing stress
Differs to tensile and compressive stresses, which are caused by forces perpendicular to the area on which they act.
Uniformly distributed load Uniformly varying or triangular load
Distributed load
Fatigue stress
Due to cyclic application of a stress; could be due to vibration or thermal cycling.
Residual stress
Due to the manufacturing processes that leave stresses in a material.
Single shear Double shear Punching shear
Examples of Shear
Thermal stress
Exists whenever temperature gradients are present in a material.
Shearing stress
Force parallel to the area resisting the force cause ______.
proportional limit
From the origin O to the point called ____, the stress-strain curve is a straight line.
Biaxial deformation
If an element is subjected simultaneously by tensile stresses, o_x and o_y, in the x and y directions. the strain in the x direction is o_x/E and the strain in the y direction is o_y/E.
Triaxial deformation
If an element is subjected simultaneously by three mutually perpendicular normal stresses o_x, o_y, and o_z, which are accompanied by strains E_x, E_y and E_z, respectively.
Torsion
In solid mechanics, it is the twisting of an object due to an applied torque. In circular sections, the resultant shearing stress is perpendicular to the radius.
Strength of Materials
Its principal object is to determine the proper size and form of pieces which have to bear given loads, or, conversely, to determine the loads which can be safely applied to pieces whose dimensions and arrangement are already given.
Flow stress
Occur when a mass of flowing fluid induces a dynamic pressure on a conduit wall
Structural stress
Produced in structural members because of the weights they support.
Tangential stress
Shearing stress is also known as ______.
Yield strength
Stress at which material exceeds the elastic limit and will not return to its original shape or length if the stress is removed.
Pressure stress
Stresses induced in vessels containing pressurized materials.
Circumferential stress
Tangential stress
positive, negative
Tensile deformation is considered ______ and compressive deformation is considered _______.
Double shear
The bolt resists the shears across two cross-sectional area.
Bearing stress
The contact pressure between the separate bodies.
Ultimate strength
The maximum ordinate in the stress-strain diagram is the ______ or tensile strength.
Stress
The mutual action between two bodies, or between two parts of a body, whereby each of the two exerts a force upon the other.
Stress
The ratio of the applied load to the cross-sectional area of an element in tension.
Factor of Safety
The ratio of ultimate strength to allowable strength.
Modulus of Resilience
The resilience of the material is its ability to absorb energy without creating a permanent distortion.
Single shear
The rivet resists shear across its cross-sectional area.
Rupture strength
The strength of the material at rupture.
Catenary
The theoretical shape of a hanging flexible chain or cable when supported at its ends and acted upon by a uniform gravitational force (its own weight) and in equilibrium. The curve has a U shape, that is similar in appearance to the parabola, though it is a different curve.
Modulus of Toughness
The toughness of a material is its ability to absorb energy without causing it to break.
