The highest point of the stress–strain curve is the ultimate tensile strength and has units of stress. The equivalent point for the case of compression, instead of tension, is called the compressive ...

We will look at a very easy experiment that provides lots of information about the strength or the mechanical behavior of a material, called the tensile ... stress (load divided by the initial ...

Building on their work on the first-ever supranano magnesium alloy, a research team led by City University of Hong Kong ...
