Question
1. Qualify each statement as ‘True’ or ‘False’ Some sort of explanation for each is required.
1- Fatigue testing is a type of static mechanical test method. True False
2- Vickers hardness test is always used as a microhardness test technique. True False
3- With increasing temperature, the thermal creep rate decreases. True False
4- Due to the Hall-Petch strengthening effect, a coarse grained material can exhibit higher yield strength compared to a fine grained material. True False
5- Uranium has six allotropic forms. True False
6- Uranium has a melting point that surpasses the melting point of UO2. True False
7- Irradiation creep at lower homologous temperature is not possible. True False
8- Void swelling is a direct result of the formation of dislocation loops. True False
9- Sensitization creates intragranular failure in some high-chromium austenitic stainless steels. True False
10- The void swelling occurs mainly in the temperature range of 0.1-0.2Tm where Tm is the melting temperature of material in K. True False
Explanation / Answer
1. True : The fatigue testing is static mechanical test method
2. True: used for thin cross sections,small parts and the indention it makes is small
3. False : Thermal creep rate increases with temperature
4. False : As we reduce the grin size the yield strength is increased due to Hall - petch strengthening effect
fine grained structure has lesser grain size than coarze grained. Hence the yield strength is higher for fine grained structures as compared to coarse grained.
5. False : Uranium has 3 allotropic forms
6.False : melting point of uranium ( 1132 deg C ) < melting point of Uo2 ( 2865 deg C)
7. False :Irradiation creep is possible at low homologus temperature. This is known as radiation induced creep where therma creep is negligible.
8. True: Void swelling is a direct result of the formation of dislocation loops
9. False: Sensitization creates intergranular failure in some high-chromium austenitic stainless steels ( Not intraganular)
10: True : The void swelling occurs mainly in the temperature range of (0.1-to 0.2 )Tm where Tm is the melting temperature of material in K.
