load-deformation curve
1Deformation (engineering) — This article is about deformation in engineering. For a more rigorous treatment, see Deformation (mechanics). Compressive stress results in deformation which shortens the object but also expands it outwards. In materials science, deformation is a …

3Stress–strain curve — During testing of a material sample, the stress–strain curve is a graphical representation of the relationship between stress, derived from measuring the load applied on the sample, and strain, derived from measuring the deformation of the sample …
