1(a) Give the broad classification of metal working processes.
4 M
1(b) Explain Tresca and Von-Mises yield criteria.
8 M
1(c) The state of stress at a point is given by σx=70MPa,
σy=120
τxy=35MPa. If the yield strength of the material is 125 Mpa, determine in a uniaxial tensile test, whether yielding will occur according to Tresca's and Von-Mises yield conditions or not.
