- Discussion:
- stretch appied to an object which when removed will allow object to revert to its original resting length;
- produces a linear "
stress/
strain" slope;
-
yield point or limit or proportionality, denotes end of elastic region of the curve;
- if any load along this gradient up to this point is removed, substance will regain its resting shape;
-
elastic limit: maximum load that a substance can withstand and still resume its original shape;
