Sentence examples for elastic limit from inspiring English sources

Stresses beyond the elastic limit cause a material to yield or flow.

All solids have an elastic limit beyond which something happens.

For such materials the elastic limit marks the end of elastic behaviour and the beginning of plastic behaviour.

For most brittle materials, stresses beyond the elastic limit result in fracture with almost no plastic deformation.

A concept called "Equivalent Elastic Limit State" is introduced.

The yield point, alternatively called the elastic limit, marks the end of elastic behaviour and the beginning of plastic behaviour.

When stresses up to the elastic limit are removed, the material resumes its original size and shape.

Moreover, elastic limit region changes have been investigated for two different designs of FGM materials.

This paper evaluates the amount of effectiveness of this consideration within the elastic limit.

Many practically important ceramic materials show inelastic behavior well beyond the elastic limit.
