Abstract
The conditions under which yielding starts at lower temperatures in metallic and also in other materials are discussed. Recent tests, particularly those made in England, Germany, Switzerland, and the United States, are compared and the results of a number of new ones concerning the conditions of yielding of steel are reported. More detailed reference to these tests is made, and conclusions as to the best expressions available at present are drawn from them and utilized in rules for computing working stresses in practical cases. In conclusion, certain suggestions are made as to the conditions of ordinary rupture in a static test.
