Yield Strength Calculator

Yield Strength Equation

$$ \sigma_y = \frac{F_y}{A} $$
where:

σ_y = Tensile Strength (Pa or N/m²)

F_y = Yield Force (N)

A = Cross Sectional Area (m²)

Equation Assumptions

The material behaves linearly and elastically.
Deformations are small (for large strains the linear relationship between shear stress and strain may not hold).
Material is homogeneous.
The material is isotropic.
