Stress/strain curves are often acquired under constant strain-rate conditions. The force required to produce this deformation behavior is measured with the Load Cell and normalized to yield the ...

It is determined as the value of the stress at which a line of the same slope as the initial portion (elastic region) of the curve that is offset by a strain of 0.2% or a value of 0.002 strain ...

The tensile behavior of composites is also different from that of metals in the 'plastic deformation' region of the stress/strain curve. The diagram shows the curve for a uniaxial sample tested along ...

Young's modulus is a crucial mechanical property in engineering, as it defines the stiffness of a material and tells us how much it will deform for an applied stress. In this video I take a detailed ...
