  2. Euler's critical load - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Euler's_critical_load

    Fig. 1: Critical stress vs slenderness ratio for steel, for E = 200 GPa, yield strength = 240 MPa. Euler's critical load or Euler's buckling load is the compressive load at which a slender column will suddenly bend or buckle. It is given by the formula: [1] = where

  3. Compressive strength - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Compressive_strength

    Measuring the compressive strength of a steel drum. In mechanics, compressive strength (or compression strength) is the capacity of a material or structure to withstand loads tending to reduce size (compression).

  4. Ultimate tensile strength - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ultimate_tensile_strength

    The ultimate tensile strength of a material is an intensive property; therefore its value does not depend on the size of the test specimen.However, depending on the material, it may be dependent on other factors, such as the preparation of the specimen, the presence or otherwise of surface defects, and the temperature of the test environment and material.

  5. von Mises yield criterion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Von_Mises_yield_criterion

    As shown in the equations above, the use of the von Mises criterion as a yield criterion is only exactly applicable when the following material properties are isotropic, and the ratio of the shear yield strength to the tensile yield strength has the following value: [10]

  6. Specified minimum yield strength - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Specified_Minimum_Yield...

    Specified Minimum Yield Strength (SMYS) means the specified minimum yield strength for steel pipe manufactured in accordance with a listed specification 1.This is a common term used in the oil and gas industry for steel pipe used under the jurisdiction of the United States Department of Transportation.

  7. Young's modulus - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Young's_modulus

    Young's modulus is the slope of the linear part of the stress–strain curve for a material under tension or compression.. Young's modulus (or Young modulus) is a mechanical property of solid materials that measures the tensile or compressive stiffness when the force is applied lengthwise.

  8. Mohr's circle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mohr's_circle

    To derive the equation of the Mohr circle for the two-dimensional cases of plane stress and plane strain, first consider a two-dimensional infinitesimal material element around a material point (Figure 4), with a unit area in the direction parallel to the -plane, i.e., perpendicular to the page or screen.

  9. Four-point flexural test - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Four-point_flexural_test

    In the 4-point bending test, the specimen is placed on two supports and loaded in the middle by a test punch with two loading points. This results in a constant bending moment between the two supports.
