1. Elasticity & Basic Principles

Key Concepts & Definitions

  • Elasticity: The property of a material to return to its original shape after deformation when the applied load is removed. Deformations disappear completely, indicating a reversible behavior.

  • Ductility: The ability of a solid material to undergo significant plastic deformation under tensile stress before fracture, providing warning of failure through visible strain.

  • Strength: The maximum stress a material can withstand without failure, whether tensile, compressive, or shear.

  • Toughness: The capacity of a material to absorb energy and plastically deform without fracturing; a balance of strength and ductility.

  • Brittleness: The tendency of a material to fracture with little to no plastic deformation (strain typically below 5%), often failing suddenly without warning.

  • Fatigue: The weakening of a material caused by cyclic loading, which can lead to failure after many small stress cycles below the breaking stress.
