Presets

Pull on a material and its stress-strain curve tells its story: a straight elastic region with slope equal to Young's modulus, a yield point where permanent deformation begins, a peak at the ultimate tensile strength, and finally fracture. Ductile metals stretch far; brittle ones like cast iron snap with almost no warning.
