Tension test of brittle material may cause unexpected failure of the material.
Tension test of brittle material may cause unexpected failure of the material. Correct Answer True
A direct tensile load is difficult to maintain because of misalignment of specimen grips and some bending usually occurs. It has no problem while testing ductile materials because local yielding can redistribute the stress, so uniformity remains; however, in brittle materials, local yielding is not possible and cause the failure of specimen in an unexpected way.
