I am currently doing a material characterisation project and have performed a standard tensile test on a number of 304 stainless steel specimens.

I have obtained a number of stress-strain curves from the testing and have been told I need to relate them to the Ramberg-Osgood material model in order to determine the parameters of the R-O equation. I really have no idea how to do this that doesn't involve guess and check. Does anyone have any experience in this field, any help would be great!
