Hooke’s Law
Stress is proportional to strain; that is, Eqn. 2
where :
E = is a material property known as the modulus of elasticity or Young’s modulus.
The units of E are the same as the units of stress—that is, Pa or psi.
For steel, E = 29 x 𝟏𝟎𝟔 psi, or 200 GPa, approximately.
Note: that Hooke’s law does not apply to the entire diagram; its validity ends at the proportional limit. Beyond this
point, stress is no longer proportional to strain.
Elastic Limit - A material is said to be elastic if, after being loaded, the material returns to its original shape
when the load is removed.
Rupture Stress - The rupture stress or rupture strength is the stress at which failure occurs.
