SUMMARY • Stress and strain: These are size-independent measures of load and displacement, respectively. • Elastic behavior: This reversible behavior often shows a linear relation between stress and strain. To minimize deformation, select a material with a large elastic modulus (E or G). • Plastic behavior: This permanent deformation behavior occurs when the tensile (or compressive) uniaxial stress reaches y. • Toughness: The energy needed to break a unit volume of material. • Ductility: The plastic strain at failure. Note: For materials selection cases related to mechanical behavior, see slides 22-4 to 22-10.
