True Stress – Strain relation in Plastic region can be expressed as σ=K ϵn
where K is strength coefficient and n is strain hardening exponent
At ultimate tensile strength ϵ T =n ϵ T =n=ln (1+ e)=ln(1+0.35)=0.30 σT =σ (1+e)=400( 1=0.35)=540 from power law σT =K ϵ nT 540=K 0.3 0.3 540 =K=775 MPa 0.30.3
True Stress – Strain relation in Plastic region is σ=K ϵn
