Hi everybody,

I have a question about the yield strength of aluminum.
I have a stress-strain diagram of a tensile test.
The question is "How to determine the yield strength of the alumium base on that
diagram"
For high strength steel we take .2% offset strain or .5% strain extension under
load.
Is this applicable to aluminum ?
Please also give me the sources about this matter.

Thanks in advance.
