A cylindrical specimen of some metal alloy 11.2 mm (0.4409 in.) in diameter is stressed elastically in tension. A force of 15600 N (3507 lbf) produces a reduction in specimen diameter of 5 × 10-3 mm (1.969 × 10-4 in.). Compute Poisson's ratio for this material if its elastic modulus is 100 GPa (14.5 × 106 psi).

Describe one experiment in which the glass transition temperature and melting temperature of a totally amorphous thermoplastic material can be determined. show the relevant experimental results in a diagram which should be properly annotated with the two temperatures clearly marked. what is likely to happen to the curve in the diagram if the amorphous polymer is replaced by a thermosetting type?
