Sample calculation for Copper and Brass :

[Taken from first reading for Brass (Table 3)]

To calculate the engineering stress, :-
F d 2
, where A0
A0 4
4F
Therefore,
d 2
At L= 0.1 mm, F=1.00 kN
4F 4 1
35367.77kPa
d 2
0.0065 2

To calculate the engineering strain, :-

LU LO L 0.1mm
0.0025
LO LO 40mm
To calculate Modulus of Elastisity, E :-
