For my A2 practical project I am using a stress gauage on a 'rule' shape of plastic and adding diffrent weights to see the changein stress and strain. As another varible I will be changing the temperture of the plastic to see how this effects its stress and strain.
I'm looking for help in how I should set the experiment up? (words, diagrams or web links)
What other things I should measure?
Examples of this experiment?
Gernal advice and tips?
p.s. I chose this experiment as I plan to study Civil Engeerning at university.
Relevant equations:-
Youngs modulas- E = σ2 - σ1 / ε 2 - ε 1
All that I can think of.
The attempt at a solution:-
I've asked my teacher for help but it wasn't sucesful.
I've looked on the internet but found nothing usfull so far. . . .
