dataset_al.head()

dataset_steel=pd.read_csv(r'C:\Users\My Pc\Desktop\steel1045.csv')

dataset_steel.head()

d = 0.506

r = d/2

A = np.pi*r**2

stress_al = (dataset_al['FORCE']/A)*0.001

strain_al = dataset_al['CH5']*0.01

stress_steel = (dataset_steel['FORCE']/A)*0.001

strain_steel = dataset_steel['CH5']*0.01

Plot the full stress , strain curve-

fig,ax = plt.subplots()

ax.plot(strain_steel, stress_steel)

ax.set_xlabel('Strain (in/in)')
ax.set_ylabel('Stress (ksi)')
