The basic idea of a tensile ... strength of the material just as it starts to permanently change shape. It is determined as the value of the stress at which a line of the same slope as the initial ...

The top diagram shows a tensile stress-strain curve for a 6,6 Nylon. It should be noted that the strain at fracture is very large (300%) compared to that for metals. The lower diagram shows the ...

Stress-strain curves revealed a more than 200% increase in yield and ultimate tensile strength for the upcycled alloy compared to the recycled material. The microstructural analysis identified ...
