Would you say that steel is elastic or viscoelastic? In elasticity, when in the elastic range, deformation did not depend on time at all. If you deform the material very fast, or if you deformed it very slow, can you always have the same stress strain curve?

Ashok: It is our understanding that the stress-strain curve of a ferrous material will change, depending on the loading rate. Higher rates of loading, increase the apparent yield strength. Hope this helps! David Hendrix The Hendrix Group Inc.
