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.
