FAQ

What is the Compressive Yield Strength?
The Compressive Yield Strength is the stress which causes a material to exhibit a specified deformation. Usually determined from the stress-strain diagram obtained in a compression test. Compressive Yield Strength is usually measured using the Newton per Square Millimeter for Stress. Note that the value of Compressive Yield Strength is always positive.
Can the Compressive Yield Strength be negative?
No, the Compressive Yield Strength, measured in Stress cannot be negative.
What unit is used to measure Compressive Yield Strength?
Compressive Yield Strength is usually measured using the Newton per Square Millimeter[N/mm²] for Stress. Pascal[N/mm²], Newton per Square Meter[N/mm²], Kilonewton per Square Meter[N/mm²] are the few other units in which Compressive Yield Strength can be measured.
