What properties can you obtain from a tensil test? Which strength is most important for mechanical design?

Solution

From tensile test through Universal Testing Machine, we can obtain Young\'s modulus, fracture toughness, resilience. In design point of view, yield strength is more important because it is the point where material deformation will start taking place. If we design the component for failure, ultimate stress is taken in to consideration.
