Spreadsheet to analyze the comparative of elasticities properties of aluminum alloy materials

Abstract

Physics learning contains mathematical processes with various equations to interpret concepts or phenomena in the quantitative concept. Each material with different values owns material mechanical properties such as elasticity. Spreadsheets can help mathematical processes become more effective and efficient. The output of spreadsheets can be interpreted as graphs or diagrams that make it easier to understand concepts and compare the elasticity of each material. The material studied in this study is an aluminum alloy in terms of its elemental content. Spreadsheet analysis presents the values of the elasticity properties of each material in graphical form. The elasticity properties studied are the modulus of elasticity (Young modulus), yield strength (Yield strength), and maximum strength (Ultimate strength).
