List At Least Two Factors That Promote Transition From Ductile To Brittle Fracture. |
|
Answer» Manner of loading, and the RATE of loading PROMOTE transition from ductile to brittle fracture. A machine MEMBER may have ductile failure under static loading but may fail in brittle fashion when the load is fluctuating. Similarly a material may evidence ductile failure under tensile loading at ordinary testing SPEED but if load is applied at a high velocity then failure may be brittle.
