types of fracture in metal
Ductile fractures occur when a metal is able to stretch and deform before breaking, while brittle fractures occur when a metal breaks without significant plastic deformation.
A fatigue fracture is a type of fracture that occurs when a metal is subjected to repeated stress over time, causing microscopic cracks to form and eventually lead to failure.
Yes, metals can experience both ductile and brittle fractures depending on the type of stress and conditions they are subjected to.
The type of fracture in metal can be determined by examining the appearance of the fracture surface, as well as conducting mechanical tests and analyzing the material's properties and behavior.
The type of fracture in metal can be influenced by factors such as the type of loading, temperature, material properties, and the presence of defects or imperfections in the metal.
