Yield Strength:
In machines and structures the metal must not deform permanetly when subjected to a load. For this reason, yhe yield strength is often reported. The yield strengt is the stress to which am metal can be subjected without permanent deformation. In ductile metarials the yield strength is at lower stress level than the ultimate tensile strength.
