Series of 15 deflection values used and their corresponding strength on the data sample. Deflections 1 to 8 constitute the elastic round trip, while 1 to 9 represent the elastic domain. Spontaneous plastic stress relaxation occurs at deflection 10, causing the strength to drop from 3.75 to 2.3 N. Deflections 11 to 15 represent the plastic domain and at deflection 15 all recorded peaks clearly display a plastic deformation (except at neutral fibre of course).
