If the fastening shown in Fig. 1.1 is overstressed by applying excess torque to the nut (for example,by extending the length of the spanner with a tube),the bolt will be stressed beyond its elastic range.Once the yield stress for the bolt has been exceeded it exhibits plastic properties and takes a permanent set that is,it becomes permanently lengthened,the “spring back” is seriously reduced and the joint faces are no longer held firmly together. Thus for critical assemblies,the designer will seek to control the stress in the fastening and associated components by specifying the torque to be applied to the nut as it is tightened by the use of a “torque spanner” set to a specific value.

可以得出科技英语的特点:
1. 在文章结构方面,逻辑严谨,层次分明,复杂长句多; 2. 在用词方面,必然要用到专业术语和专业单词,以及词
性变换多; 3. 在语法方面,非谓语动词多,较多地使用被动语态; 4. 另一个重要特点是采用图表等非语言因素表达思想。

★词性转换多
英语单词有不少是多性词,如: Above
Despite the tests described in Chapters 11 and 12,materials may still fail in service,sometimes with disastrous results (e.g. when the failure occurs in aircraft.bridges,ships,etc.). To try to avoid such disastrous occurring,the designer avoids using
interests of safety not only increases the initial material costs,but also the operating costs. For example,the stronger and heavier the structure members of an aircraft,the fewer passengers it can carry and the more fuel it consumes.Therefore a balance has to be maintained between safety,initial cost and operating costs.The designer is constantly striving to improve the former whilst reducing the latter.

Allowable working stress is taken as a proportion of the yield or proof stress;that is,the component is only stressed within its elastic range when in service.For example, consider the screwed fastening shown in Fig. 1.l. When the nut is tightened normally the bolt is stretched slightly and,providing it is stressed within its elastic range,it will behave like a very powerful spring and will pull the joint faces together very firmly.
