Consider iron and its elastic constants (Find them from the world wide web or some book). An iron specimen consists of grains with texturing distribution of [110] (20%), [112] (20%), [111] (30%) and [103] (30%) (all percentages by volume) along the loading direction is serving under a static force of 10,000 N. The metal rod has a 20 mm diameter perpendicular to the loading direction.
a) Find the strain response of the specimen.
b) Using the result you obtained in (a), find which grain is experiencing the highest stress?
c) How many % difference exists between the true stress and the engineering stress?
