Mechanical Properties of engineering
materials
Ductile Fracture We can see that the pipe is in one piece and there is a
large deformation
Brittle Fracture We see that the pipe has been broken into many small
different pieces with small deformation

softens. Many materials that have a low yield strength to ultimate tensile
strength ratio often show cyclic strain hardening.
