47 The following true stresses produce the corresponding true plastic strains for a brass alloy:
Solution
For this problem, we are given two values of eT and sT, from which we are asked to calculate the true
stress that produces a true plastic strain of 0.21. From Equation 6.19, we want to set up two simultaneous equations
with two unknowns (the unknowns being K and n). Taking logarithms of both sides of Equation 6.19 leads to
The two simultaneous equations using data provided in the problem statement are as follows:
Subtract the bottom equation from the top equation to remove the log K term, so you can solve for just n. Rearrange
the equations to solve for n. You can also remember the log rule that log(M)-log(N)=log(M/N).
Solving for n from these two expressions yields
We solve for K by substitution of this value of n into the first simultaneous equation as
The true stress required to produce a true strain of 0.21 is determined using Equation 6.19 as follows:
