The document discusses the differences between true and engineering stress-strain curves, with the true stress-strain curve being more meaningful for studying material behavior under changing dimensions. It explains that engineering stress-strain curves do not account for dimensional changes, only using initial dimensions, while true stress-strain curves do. The document also outlines the simplifications made in obtaining flow curves, such as neglecting Bauschinger effect and initial elastic deformation, and treating materials as perfectly rigid-plastic without elasticity below the yield stress.

Before starting with the description of the theory, is useful to
know the difference between the true stress-strain curve instead of the engineering curve and why is more meaningful for this kind of study. According to Deiter (1988), the engineering stress-strain curve doesn’t consider the changing of the specimens’ dimension in fact as presented in the equation (5) and (6), consider only the initial dimensions. Abdjsckabh bvxah Where K is the stress at the unit deformation and n is the so-called strain- hardening coefficient; these two coefficients vary for every alloy. To obtain the flow curve, some simplifications have been made like neglecting the Bauschinger effect and the initial elastic deformation. The Bauschinger effect describe the material hysteresis behavior but usually it’s admitted an equal yield stress for tension and compression; the other simplifications are to consider the material behavior like perfectly rigid without the elastic deformation below the yield stress and then during the plasticity the stress cannot be higher than the yield stress, this is called a perfectly rigid-plastic material.
