Definitions
• The point up to which the stress and strain are linearly related is called
the proportional limit.
• The largest stress in the stress strain curve is called the ultimate stress.
• The stress at the point of rupture is called the fracture or rupture stress.
• The region of the stress-strain curve in which the material returns to
the undeformed state when applied forces are removed is called the
elastic region.
• The region in which the material deforms permanently is called the
plastic region.
• The point demarcating the elastic from the plastic region is called the
yield point. The stress at yield point is called the yield stress.
• The permanent strain when stresses are zero is called the plastic strain.
• The off-set yield stress is a stress that would produce a plastic strain
corresponding to the specified off-set strain.
• A material that can undergo large plastic deformation before fracture
is called a ductile material.
• A material that exhibits little or no plastic deformation at failure is
called a brittle material.
• Hardness is the resistance to indentation.
• The raising of the yield point with increasing strain is called strain
hardening.
• The sudden decrease in the area of cross-section after ultimate stress is
called necking.

Isotropy and Homogeneity


Linear relationship between stress and strain components:
ε xx = C 11 σ xx + C 12 σ yy + C 13 σ zz + C 14 τ yz + C 15 τ zx + C 16 τ xy
ε yy = C 21 σ xx + C 22 σ yy + C 23 σ zz + C 24 τ yz + C 25 τ zx + C 26 τ xy
ε zz = C 31 σ xx + C 32 σ yy + C 33 σ zz + C 34 τ yz + C 35 τ zx + C 36 τ xy
γ yz = C 41 σ xx + C 42 σ yy + C 43 σ zz + C 44 τ yz + C 45 τ zx + C 46 τ xy
γ zx = C 51 σ xx + C 52 σ yy + C 53 σ zz + C 54 τ yz + C 55 τ zx + C 56 τ xy
γ xy = C 61 σ xx + C 62 σ yy + C 63 σ zz + C 64 τ yz + C 65 τ zx + C 66 τ xy
• An isotropic material has a stress-strain relationships that are indepen-
dent of the orientation of the coordinate system at a point.
• A material is said to be homogenous if the material properties are the
same at all points in the body. Alternatively, if the material constants
Cij are functions of the coordinates x, y, or z, then the material is called
non-homogenous.

called the Generalized Hooke’s Law.

ε yy = [ σ yy – ν ( σ zz + σ xx ) ] ⁄ E
