For this case yes it is uniformly loaded.
So it is okay to use values obtained from the test? (Stress, Strain)
Even though during the test the cross-sectional area is decreasing from the elongation?
Thanks
Homework Statement
This is just a simple questions concerning the method of obtaining nominal stress and nominal strain. From various sources on the net they refer to nominal stress/strain as engineering strain
therefore can I just use the simple equations for stress and strain?
In this...
