Question

An alloy has a yield strength of 818 MPa and an elastic modulus of 104 GPa. Calculate the modulus of resilience for this alloy [in J/m3 (which is equivalent to Pa)] given that it exhibits linear elastic stress-strain behavior.

Answer 1

Answer:

Modulus of resilience will be $3216942.308j/m^3$

Explanation:

We have given yield strength $\sigma _y=818MPa$

Elastic modulus E = 104 GPa

We have to find the modulus

Modulus of resilience is given by

Modulus of resilience $=\frac{\sigma _y^2}{2E}$, here $\sigma _y$ is yield strength and E is elastic modulus

Modulus of resilience $=\frac{(818\times 10^6)^2}{2\times 104\times 10^9}=3216942.308j/m^3$
