EK442
Usually, when the yield strength of a material is increased through strain hardening, the ductility of the material is reduced.
EK441
Loading the specimen into the inelastic range, but not to ultimate strength, increases the apparent elastic range. The phenomenon, called strain hardening, or work hardening, appears to increase the yield […]
EK125
If material strain hardening is not considered in the analysis, a fully yielded cross-section can undergo indefinite rotation at a constant restraining plastic moment.
EK69
For most materials after the initial yield point has been reached,the stress-strain curve continues to rise although the slope becomes progressively less, until the slope falls to zero as failure […]
