  2. Yield (engineering) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yield_(engineering)

    The yield strength or yield stress is a material property and is the stress corresponding to the yield point at which the material begins to deform plastically. The yield strength is often used to determine the maximum allowable load in a mechanical component, since it represents the upper limit to forces that can be applied without producing ...

  3. Fixed-income attribution - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fixed-income_attribution

    Of course, the yield curve is most unlikely to behave in this way. The idea is that the actual change in the yield curve can be modeled in terms of a sum of such saw-tooth functions. At each key-rate duration, we know the change in the curve's yield, and can combine this change with the KRD to calculate the overall change in value of the portfolio.

  4. Par yield - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Par_yield

    Par yield analysis is useful because it avoids the coupon effect, since a bond trading at par has a coupon yield equal to its yield to maturity, according to Martinelli et al. [4] Calculation of par yield

  5. von Mises yield criterion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Von_Mises_yield_criterion

    Because the von Mises yield criterion is independent of the first stress invariant, , it is applicable for the analysis of plastic deformation for ductile materials such as metals, as onset of yield for these materials does not depend on the hydrostatic component of the stress tensor.

  6. Yield (finance) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yield_(finance)

    yield to put assumes that the bondholder sells the bond back to the issuer at the first opportunity; and; yield to worst is the lowest of the yield to all possible call dates, yield to all possible put dates and yield to maturity. [7] Par yield assumes that the security's market price is equal to par value (also known as face value or nominal ...

  7. Factor of safety - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Factor_of_safety

    The yield calculation will determine the safety factor until the part starts to deform plastically. The ultimate calculation will determine the safety factor until failure. In brittle materials the yield and ultimate strengths are often so close as to be indistinguishable, so it is usually acceptable to only calculate the ultimate safety factor.

  8. Process capability index - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Process_capability_index

    Process yield is the complement of process fallout and is approximately equal to the area under the probability density function = / if the process output is approximately normally distributed. In the short term ("short sigma"), the relationships are:

  9. Strength of materials - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Strength_of_materials

    The strength of materials is determined using various methods of calculating the stresses and strains in structural members, such as beams, columns, and shafts. The methods employed to predict the response of a structure under loading and its susceptibility to various failure modes takes into account the properties of the materials such as its yield strength, ultimate strength, Young's modulus ...
