What is yield point?
The yield point is the point on a stress-strain curve where a material begins to deform plastically. Before this point, deformation is elastic and reversible. Beyond it, the material undergoes permanent change.

Ultimate Tensile Strength
What it is, how to measure it, and why it matters
Ultimate tensile strength (UTS) is a critical property used to determine how materials behave under tension. It defines the maximum stress a material can withstand before breaking.
