This simulation has been designed to support the teaching of tensile testing of carbon steel. It can be used to demonstrate how tensile testing experiments are carried out to find out the effect of carbon content on the mechanical properties of steel. Stress/strain graphs have been created from real experimental data; values may be accurately taken from the graphs and be used to determine Young's Modulus. The graphs can be easily overlaid to help demonstrate the effect of the varying % carbon content.
