Well done, clear, simple explanation. No boring recorded voice, you can hear it's not just a person reading a text (I always end up getting distracted with those videos) but somebody who knows what they are talking about!

[kamillburch]

This is literally so helpful. I have been sick all week and missed several lectures of my class and we have a quiz tomorrow. After watching your video I feel like I could confidently explain to my professor what the stress-strain curve is.

[becky]

Thank you! Made this concept so much easier to understand! my lecturer is an MD/PhD.... and did an absolutely horrendous job explaining this...

[ThEKeeYs]

finally .. someone did a good explanation for this curve .. good job brother

[jennytaylor]

This is the first time I've heard of this. Your explanation will help me in my exam this week. Thank you for your clear explanation.

Strain and Stress are incorrectly described. Strain is the elongation/stretch while stress is the applied force.

[Tordeques]

It's true about stretching 5 inch objects - every time I've tried to stretch a specific 5 inch object, it has always gone back to being only 5 inches long.

[dr.odehodeh]

The definition of strain is incorrect. Strain is not "how much force is being used to put tension on a particular fibre or structure". Strain is actually the change in length of a structure divided by its original length. Thus strain has no units, rather it is a percentage. Stress on the other hand is the force applied over a certain area.

Do you have resources for the periodization of training the plastic region? For say jumps or sprinting?

[maajkeel]

Can collagen regenerate to its previous elsstic lenght after entering plastic deformation region?

[umairchadhar]

Please drwa the stress strain curve of tendons in tention

[MichaelBroer]

Sounds like strain and tension would be interchangeable.
