Stress Strain Diagram
The slop of a line that is tangent to point on Stress strain curve call Tangent
modulus of elasticity .
The slop of the Stress strain curve at the origin is the call initial Tangent modulus
of elasticity.
The secant modulus of elasticity at a given stress is the slop of a line through the
origin and through the point on the curve represent that stress .

Proportional Limit
From the origin O to the point called proportional limit, the stress-strain curve is a straight
line
Elastic Limit
The elastic limit is the limit beyond which the material will no longer go back to its original
shape when the load is remove .
The region in stress-strain diagram from O to P is called the elastic range. The region from P
to R is called the plastic range
Yield Point
Yield point is the point at which the material will have an appreciable elongation or yielding
without any increase in load
Ultimate Strength
The maximum ordinate in the stress-strain diagram is the ultimate strength or tensile
strength.
Rapture Strength
Rapture strength is the strength of the material at rupture. This is also known as the
breaking strength
