Tensile test



Computer modeling is so cool.

Like in this tensile test, you can see that the force concentrates as the cross sectional area of the sample decreases, leading to more and more drastic necking.

I can't see that when I look at a real sample being tested, but with the rainbow coloration for the different amounts of force, I can kind of show that to my students.
