What is the equation of this stress-strain curve?

Click For Summary
SUMMARY

The discussion focuses on expressing strain in terms of stresses for a nonlinear hardening stress-strain curve. Participants emphasize the need to break down the curve into sections, identifying start and end values of strain (ε) for each segment. For each segment, a corresponding linear function must be derived, resulting in a comprehensive list of linear functions paired with their valid intervals. This method allows for a clear algebraic representation of the stress-strain relationship.

PREREQUISITES
  • Understanding of nonlinear hardening materials
  • Familiarity with stress-strain curves
  • Basic knowledge of algebraic functions
  • Ability to interpret graphical data
NEXT STEPS

  • Explore the concept of piecewise functions in mathematics
  • Study applications of stress-strain analysis in material science
  • Learn about different types of material hardening behaviors
USEFUL FOR

Material scientists, mechanical engineers, and students studying material behavior under stress will benefit from this discussion.

Arguably you already have .That plot tells you everything .

If you mean though how to write it down using algebraic functions then you have to do it in sections . For each of the line segments on that plot identify the start and end values of ε for that segment and find a linear function which is valid for that line segment .

You then have a list of linear functions matched with a list of the intervals over which they are valid .
