Toughness is the total amount of energy a material absorbs until the point of fracture. This property indicates the material’s capacity to store energy under impact like external loads. Toughness is directly related to the area under the stress-strain curve, which represents the energy absorbed per unit volume. A material with high toughness is expected to have both high ductility and high strength. Brittle materials with high strength but low ductility, and materials with low strength but high

Stress-Strain Curve is one of the fundamental graphical tools used to characterize the mechanical behavior of a material. This curve defines the relationship between the applied external force (stress) and the resulting deformation (strain). In materials science and engineering, it holds central importance in evaluating elastic, plastic, and fracture behaviors. Purpose of Use Stress-strain curves enable the determination of parameters such as the elastic limit, melting point, fracture strain, du
