In strain hardening hypothesis, the size of the yield locus is assumed to beindependent of the third invariant.In work hardening hypothesis, the size of the yield locus is assumed to depend on the total plastic work done (per unit volume) to achieve the present state of plastic deformation since last annealinfor isotropic hardening Both are same.
Case hardening or surface hardening is the process of hardening the surface of a metal, often a low carbon steel, by infusing elements into the material's surface, forming a thin layer of a harder alloy.

initially there is the linear elastic region which obeys the hooks law :stress is directly proportional to the strain. at the end of the linear elastic region the ductile material reaches the yield point beyond which any change in dimensions become permanent. the material goes through a yield plateau in which stress is constant and the strain changes. after crossing the yield plateau the ductile material goes through the strain hardening region in which the deformation is permanent but as the region goes on the stress increases with the strain. here the strength of the ductile material increases as it is strain hardened. at a point it reaches the ultimate load point. This is the maximum load taken by the material. after which further deformation causes decrease in strength or the stress goes on decreasing finally breaking at the breaking load point. this region is called the post-ultimate region.

The steel strain hardening exponent is typically not temperature dependent over a wide range of temperatures. However, at very high temperatures, the strain hardening exponent may decrease due to thermal softening effects. It is important to consider the specific steel alloy and the temperature range of interest when evaluating its strain hardening behavior.
Cold forming refers to the strengthening of metal through plastic deformation. It is also known as strain hardening or cold working.
hi dear, yes its true that stress increases after lower yield for ductile material. it happens due to reason of strain hardening. strain hardening is the property of the material with which the grain structures presents in the body forms bond between them. so in order to break that bonds, the stress increases after lower yield point..
Pure aluminum can be hardened by a technique known by several names: work hardening, strain hardening, cold working or cold forming. Usually, if aluminum is going to be used in a situation where wear is present, an aluminum alloy will be used in preference to pure aluminum.
If you work it beyond the yield point then you raise the yield point in a process called strain hardening
mostly is the hardening done by induction hardening machine, I know also manufactures that do this using the flame hardening method.
in my opinion surface hardening is applied only on the surface while the true hardening is applied in the whole part of the metal....
what the was on tooth hardening day?
Arteriosclerosis is hardening of the arteries.
Case hardening, also referred to as surface hardening is the process of hardening a surface of a metal. It is done by surfacing the metal surface with a layer of metal on top of it, in order to harden it.
