minus-squareRuBisCOlinkfedilinkEnglish16•5 months agoGotcha. Thanks! Do the points P, E, Y, U, and F stand for something or are the letters arbitrary?
minus-squareDettweilerlinkfedilinkEnglish37•5 months agoPlastic deformation point, elastic deformation point, yield point, ultimate strength, and failure point
minus-square@[email protected]linkfedilinkEnglish7•5 months agoAnd here I was thinking it was: F U, yep.
minus-square@[email protected]OPlinkfedilinkEnglish10•5 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-square@[email protected]linkfedilinkEnglish21•5 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

Plastic deformation point, elastic deformation point, yield point, ultimate strength, and failure point
And here I was thinking it was: F U, yep.
E is where it stops being linear, Y is yield, U is ultimate as in max, and f is fracture / failure. Not sure about p.
P 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
Proportional limit. Deformation is linear up until this point.
