Stress Strain Diagram: Find Constants E, K, n, and α

AI Thread Summary
The discussion focuses on determining the constants E, K, n, and α from a stress-strain diagram using given data points. The linear portion yields E as 33.33 MPa, while calculating K from the plastic deformation section results in varying values depending on the chosen points. There is confusion regarding the necking portion, as the graph lacks a clear maximum point, complicating the identification of the transition between linear and plastic deformation. The relationship between plastic strain (δ) and elastic strain (ε) is highlighted as problematic, with attempts to express δ in terms of ε leading to inconsistencies. Ultimately, the user struggles to derive consistent values for K and α due to the complexities of the graph's sections and the strain relationships.

given the following points of the stress strain graph
points.JPG

and knowing that the stages are defined

linear σ=Eε
uniform plastic σ=Kδ2
necking σ=αδ

where ε is an elastic strain and δ plastic strain

find the values of the constants E K n α

using the given data i plotted σ(ε) and got the following

now to find the constant E, i take the linear portion and find its incline, i get
E=33.33MPa

as for the others
for the platic deformation, can i take an of the points after (3,9) ?
for each point i chose i get a different value
K=σ/δ2
K=4e4/(13e-4)2=2.366864e10
K=4.5e4/(20e-4)2=1.125e10

is the necking portion not meant to be after a maximum point in the graph? in this graph i have no such point.

Linear, curved, linear.
 
okay i see what you are saying, so then i can find the curve of the last part as i did for the first part, but how about the curved portion?
 
as i said for each point i take i get a different value
K=σ/δ^2
K=4e4/(13e-4)^2=2.366864e10
K=4.5e4/(20e-4)^2=1.125e10
 
i think that the problem is the relationship between δ and ε, since the graph i have and the data given is for is σ(ε), but the constants i need are for σ(δ) what is the connection between δ and ε?
i thought that δ=ε+c (c being the permanent deformation after the linear portion of the graph,) but i solved the equations using δ=ε+c

σ=αδ
σ=Kδ^2
using the given data

but i cannot solve for K, α, every time i plug in different data i get different values,

i have been using the 1st 3 sets of data for the 1st linear section
the second 3 sets for the parabolic section
the last 2 sets for the final linear section

clearly the δ cannot be raplaced directly by ε since when the stress=0 the function MUST also be 0, and the strain will not be 0 after plastic deformation, looking at the graph we can also see that the parabolic and linear sections will not reach (0,0)
i can find the functions for these curves as a function of the strain ε but not δ which i need in order to find the constants
 
Thread 'Confusion regarding a chemical kinetics problem'
TL;DR Summary: cannot find out error in solution proposed. [![question with rate laws][1]][1] Now the rate law for the reaction (i.e reaction rate) can be written as: $$ R= k[N_2O_5] $$ my main question is, WHAT is this reaction equal to? what I mean here is, whether $$k[N_2O_5]= -d[N_2O_5]/dt$$ or is it $$k[N_2O_5]= -1/2 \frac{d}{dt} [N_2O_5] $$ ? The latter seems to be more apt, as the reaction rate must be -1/2 (disappearance rate of N2O5), which adheres to the stoichiometry of the...
I don't get how to argue it. i can prove: evolution is the ability to adapt, whether it's progression or regression from some point of view, so if evolution is not constant then animal generations couldn`t stay alive for a big amount of time because when climate is changing this generations die. but they dont. so evolution is constant. but its not an argument, right? how to fing arguments when i only prove it.. analytically, i guess it called that (this is indirectly related to biology, im...
