17.6 (SI units) For pure copper (annealed), the strength coefficient = 300 MPa and strain-hardening
exponent = 0.50 in the flow curve equation. Determine the average flow stress that the metal
experiences if it is subjected to a stress that is equal to its strength coefficient K.
Solution: Yf = K = 300 = Kn = 300.50
must be equal to 1.0
Y f = 300(1.0).50/1.50 = 300/1.50 = 200 MPa
17.7 Determine the value of the strain-hardening exponent for a metal that will cause the average flow
stress to be 80% of the final flow stress after deformation.
Solution: Y f = 0.80 Yf
Kn/(1+n) = 0.80 Kn
1/(1+n) = 0.80
1 = 0.80(1+n) = 0.80 + 0.80n

(b) If temperature were decreased to 900F, the strength constant C would increase and the strain-
rate sensitivity exponent m would decrease.
