I am plotting a stress-strain curve for a steel sample and am trying to include the yield line (at 0.02%), show it's intersection with the curve and also the UTS. Thus I intend for four plotted datasets to be overlayed on the same plot. My script looks like the following:

clear
clc
x1 = 0.02    %creates a linear vector using a computed slope from the elastic region of the curve
y1 = 0
m = 13254.4807
x = linspace(0, 0.05, 1000)
y_steel=m*(x-x1)
tab1 = readtable("S2G2T5_1.csv");    %fe
tab2 = readtable("S2G2T5_2.csv");    %al
A_Steel = table2array((tab1(1,"Thickness_mm_")))*table2array((tab1(1,"GaugeWidth_mm_")));    %Area calculation for each sample
A_Alum = table2array((tab2(1,"Thickness_mm_")))*table2array((tab2(1,"GaugeWidth_mm_")));
L_Steel = 78.54;    %Input from recorded data
L_Alum = 81.68;
Stress_Steel = table2array(tab1(:,"Force_kN_"))/A_Steel;    %\sigma calculation for each sample
Stress_Alum = table2array(tab2(:,"Force_kN_"))/A_Alum;
SmoothStressSteel = smoothdata(Stress_Steel,1,"loess")*1000    %applies smoothing to the data
SmoothStressAlum = smoothdata(Stress_Alum,1,"loess")*1000
Strain_Steel = table2array(tab1(:,"Displacement_mm_"))/L_Steel    %\epsilon calculation for each sample
Strain_Alum = table2array(tab2(:,"Displacement_mm_"))/L_Alum
figure(20)
Steel_plot2 = plot(Strain_Steel,SmoothStressSteel);    %stress-strain curve
hold on
yieldline_steel = plot(x1,y1,x,y_steel)    %yield line at 0.02% strain
    
yieldpoint_steel = plot(0.0462462,347.88,'diamond')    %intersection point
    annotation("textbox",[.27 .8 .3 .01],'String','\sigma_Y = 348.2 MPa','EdgeColor','w')
    
max(SmoothStressSteel)    %determines the max value for UTS
UTS_steel = plot(.11,360.6078,'diamond')    %ultimate tensile strength point
    annotation("textbox",[.5 .9 .3 .01],'String','\sigma_U_T_S = 360.6 MPa','EdgeColor','w')
    leg2 = legend(["Steel","Yield line (.02%)","\sigma_Y = 348.2 MPa","\sigma_U_T_S = 360.6 MPa"],'Location','southeast')
    ylim([0,400])
    hold off
print("Steel Stress-Strain.png",'-dpng','-f20')    %prints figure to png

The following figure looks like this:

Based on the legend, there is some object occupying the data for the legend in the second spot (red) that does not exist in the plot. The only four datasets that I am plotting are:

1. Stress-strain curve for steel (seen in blue)

2. Yield line at 0.02% (seen in yellow)

3. Yield point of intersection (seen in purple)

4. Point of ultimate tensile strength (seen in green)

My first intuition is that there is something wrong with either the yield line (yellow) and it's associated calculation toward the beginning of the code or the plotted points of

or

.

However it could be something else and I am hoping someone with a better set of eyes can find a problem I have yet to identify.

You have plotted 5 data sets -

% #1
Steel_plot2 = plot(Strain_Steel,SmoothStressSteel);    %stress-strain curve
% #2 and #3
yieldline_steel = plot(x1,y1,x,y_steel)    %yield line at 0.02% strain
    
% #4
yieldpoint_steel = plot(0.0462462,347.88,'diamond')    %intersection point
    
% #5
UTS_steel = plot(.11,360.6078,'diamond')    %ultimate tensile strength point
