Objectives
- Students are required to understand the principle of a uniaxial tensile testing and gain their practices on operating the tensile testing machine to achieve the required tensile properties.
- Students are able to explain load-extension and stress-strain relationships and represent them in graphical forms.
- To evaluate the values of ultimate tensile strength, yield strength, % elongation, fracture strain and Young’s Modulus of the selected metals when subjected to uniaxial tensile loading.
- Students can explain deformation and fracture characteristics of different materials such as aluminium, steels or brass when subjected to uniaxial tensile loading.Laboratory Experiments Tensile Testing.pdf (1.7% u)
