What is Yield Strength of Material?

Yield strength refers to the amount of stress a material can withstand without undergoing permanent deformation. In engineering terms, it is the stress at which a material begins to deform plastically. Prior to reaching the yield point, a material will deform elastically, meaning it can return to its original shape once the stress is removed. However, once the yield strength is surpassed, the material will experience permanent, irreversible deformation. This property is critical in the design and analysis of structures, as it defines the maximum stress a material can handle before failing.
