Yield vs elasticity in aluminum
I have an application that involves forming 2024 aluminum in the T42 state. I need to determine [approximate] the amount of elastic stretch vs yield once the yield point has been exceeded. In other words, once beyond the yield point, how much of the strain results in addional yield, as opposed...- Ivan Seeking
