Bauschingers Effect
Yield stress in compression
may decrease after an initial
load application past the
tension yield point.
This phenomena is
an important topic in
plasticity theory.

Mechanical Properties
(Stress Controlled Cyclic Loading)
Materials can demonstrate three
characteristics: 1) cyclic hardening, 2)
cyclic softening, and 3) cyclic strain
accumulation (ratcheting).
Mechanical Properties
(Strain Controlled Cyclic Loading)
Materials can demonstrate
two characteristics: 1) cyclic
hardening and 2) cyclic
softening.
Mechanical Properties
(Creep)
Creep is most
pronounced at high
temperatures. It may
also occur at room
temperatures when
the stress level is
close to the yield
strength.
