tensile stress at yield point
1yield point — /ˈjild pɔɪnt/ (say yeeld poynt) noun the stress at which an elongation of the test piece of metal in a tensile test first occurs without increase of load. Also, yield stress …
2Tensile strength — sigma {UTS}, or S U is the stress at which a material breaks or permanently deforms. Tensile strength is an intensive property and, consequently, does not depend on the size of the test specimen. However, it is dependent on the preparation of the …
3Stress (physics) — Stress is a measure of the average amount of force exerted per unit area. It is a measure of the intensity of the total internal forces acting within a body across imaginary internal surfaces, as a reaction to external applied forces and body… …
4Yield (engineering) — The yield strength or yield point of a material is defined in engineering and materials science as the stress at which a material begins to deform plastically. Prior to the yield point the material will deform elastically and will return to its… …
5Stress–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 …
6Stress (mechanics) — Continuum mechanics …
7Stress field — A stress field is a region in a body for which the stress is defined at every point. Stress fields are widely used in fluid dynamics and materials science.Intuitively, one can picture the stress fields as the stress created by adding an extra… …
8tensile test — a standard test piece is gripped at either end by suitable apparatus in a testing machine which slowly exerts an axial pull so that the steel is stretched until it breaks. The test provides information on proof stress, yield point, tensile… …
9Von Mises yield criterion — The von Mises yield criterion [von Mises, R. (1913). Mechanik der Festen Korper im plastisch deformablen Zustand. Göttin. Nachr. Math. Phys., vol. 1, pp. 582–592.] suggests that the yielding of materials begins when the second deviatoric stress… …
10Shear stress — SI symbol: τ SI unit: pascal Derivations from other quantities: τ = F / A …
