Slope of the linear(elastic) part of a stress-strain curve

21 views (last 30 days)
So, I have a stress-strain curve. I need to find the slope of the linear part of the curve (a.k.a. Young's modulus) which is the region between the black lines.
I usually do this on Excel by drawing a trendline over this set of datapoints. How can this be done on Matlab ?
I would also need to do some corrections to the curves.

Pick the required points (x,y) which fall in linear region.
p = polyfit(x,y,1) ;
m = p(1)
