In the flow curve equation given below, if the value of strain hardening exponent is increased, what will be the effect on the ductility of material? σ=Kεn; Where n is strain hardening exponent.
In the flow curve equation given below, if the value of strain hardening exponent is increased, what will be the effect on the ductility of material? σ=Kεn; Where n is strain hardening exponent. Correct Answer It increases
The strain hardening exponent has a relationship with the ductility that is necking begins when true strain is equal to strain hardening exponent. So if the value of n is increased, the true strain at necking is also increased. So ultimately the ductility is improved.
