Yield strength
A plastically deformed structure, will experience permanent change in shape and may not be intended for good functionality. Stress level at which plastic deformations begins is known as yielding. It is the point of linearity of stress-strain curve, shown as proportional limit.

Hard to measure,
in ceramic matrix and epoxy matrix composites, since in tension, fracture usually occurs before yield.

Ductility
Ductility is a measure of degree of plastic deformation that has been sustained at fracture. A material that experiences very little or no plastic deformation upon fracture is termed brittle. Ductility may be expressed quantitatively as percent elongation or percent reduction in area. %EL is the percentage of plastic strain at fracture.

Tensile Test
Tests are performed as per the ASTM, BS or Australian Standards. A tensile test measures the resistance of a material to a static or slowly applied force. A machined specimen is placed in the testing machine and load is applied. A strain gage or extensometer is used to measure elongation. The stress obtained at the highest applied force is the Tensile Strength.
Tensile Test
Test provides data: strength, stiffness, ductility
