To calculate the modulus of elasticity for a material and the yield stress based on the stress-strain diagram.

Some materials do not have a well-defined yield point (Figure 1) . Instead, the stress-strain diagram gradually curves away from a linear response after a certain point. One method of defining the yield stress for such a material is the 0.2% offset method. The slope of the linear region is calculated. Then a parallel line is drawn starting at a strain of 0.002. The intersection of this line with the stress-strain curve defines the yield stress.

The following data were obtained using a tension testing machine with a sample at 20?C that had a circular cross section with diameter d0 = 12.5 mm and a gage length of L0 = 50 mm .
