minus-squareRuBisCO@slrpnk.netlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up0·10 months agoGotcha. Thanks! Do the points P, E, Y, U, and F stand for something or are the letters arbitrary?
minus-squareHootinNHollerin@lemmy.worldOPlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up0·10 months agoE is where it stops being linear, Y is yield, U is ultimate as in max, and f is fracture / failure. Not sure about p.
minus-squareLeftRedditOnJul1@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up0·10 months agoP is the Proportional Limit, where it stops being linear, but remains elastic for a short while longer, meaning any deformation can still be recovered. E is the Elastic Limit, where it changes from elastic to plastic
minus-squareandrewth09@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up0·10 months agoProportional limit. Deformation is linear up until this point.
