Week 4 -Wire Bending Challenge
Problem Statement: To see the stresses generated on the wire while bending with levar.
Result Observation Table:
| Cu | Al | Mg | |
| Equivalent Stress (Wire) | 338.04 Mpa | 327.47 Mpa | 265.4 Mpa |
| Equivalent Strain (Wire) | 0.002 mm | 0.0046 mm | 0.0059 mm |
Result and Conclusion:
From the simulation it is observed:
1) Max Equivalent Elastic Strain is higher in Magnesium Alloy
2) Max Equivalent Stress is higher in Copper Alloy
We can conclude that Magnesium Alloy will take less load for bending and Copper will take higher load in bending
