Stress–strain curve for brittle materials compared to ductile materials. Some common characteristics among the stress–strain curves can be distinguished with various groups of materials and, on this basis, to divide materials into two broad categories; namely, the ductile materials and the brittle materials.

Depending on the type of material, size and geometry of the object, and the forces applied, various types of deformation may result. The image to the right shows the engineering stress vs. strain diagram for a typical ductile material such as steel.

Brittle materials fracture at low strains and absorb little energy. Conversely, ductile materials fail after significant plastic strain (deformation) and absorb more energy. Note that in this idealized example, the yield and ultimate tensile stresses are the same for both materials; brittle or ductile behavior is not necessarily related to ...
Typical stress vs. strain diagram for a ductile material (e.g. steel). Spanish Diagrama típico de esfuerzo vs. deformación para un material dúctil (p.ej. acero).
For a given stress and temperature, the strain rate and deformation mechanism of a material is given by a point on the map. By comparing maps of various materials, crystal structures, bonds, grain sizes, etc., studies of these materials properties on plastic flow can be conducted and a more complete understanding of deformation in materials is ...
Stress–strain analysis (or stress analysis) is an engineering discipline that uses many methods to determine the stresses and strains in materials and structures subjected to forces. In continuum mechanics , stress is a physical quantity that expresses the internal forces that neighboring particles of a continuous material exert on each other ...
Stress-strain curve for ductile materials with no well defined yield point. UTS=ultimate tensile strength. Yield stress is defined by an offset line, corresponding to a given amount of plastic deformation. Date: 23 August 2007: Source: Own work: Author: Sigmund
