This video is an introduction to stress and strain, which are fundamental concepts that are used to describe how an object ...

The diagrams opposite show stress-strain curves for a linear elastic material such as a metal (top) and a non-linear elastic material such as rubber (bottom). If these materials are taken to some ...

It quantifies the relationship between stress (force per unit area) and strain (proportional deformation) in a material in the linear elastic region of a stress-strain curve. A high Young's modulus ...

The ultimate tensile strength is usually found by performing a tensile test and recording the engineering stress versus strain. The highest point of the stress–strain curve is the ultimate tensile ...
