Abstract

The onset and extent of plastic deformation is often measured when the σ − ε behavior of a material is being determined. We showed some general σ − ε curves in Chapter 16. In Figure 17.1, σ − ε curves obtained for crystals of KBr and MgO tested in bending are shown. From these curves we can identify several parameters that may already be familiar to you from discussion of the mechanical properties of metals.
