Tensile Strength (UTS):

 This is the maximum stress a material can withstand before fracturing. It is represented by
the highest point (Point D) on the stress-strain curve.

Yield Strength (YS):

 Yield strength signifies the stress level at which a material starts to deform permanently.

Percent Elongation (%EL):

 This is a measure of a material's ductility, which is its ability to deform plastically under
tension before fracture.

Percent Reduction in Area (%RA):

 This is another measure of ductility that reflects the amount of necking a material
undergoes before fracture.

Impact Strength:

 It refers to a material's ability to absorb energy and resist fracture under a sudden impact
load.

Hardness:
 Material can withstand having its shape permanently changed by an external force pressing it.
