(1981) Structural analysis of nature of decrease of microscopic
elastic limit of nickel after high plastic deformations.
The spring compression would be designed to be below the
Elastic Limit. When fully compressed, the spring would be at Point B.
Experimental data from tensile tests at a constant true strain-rate of [10.sup.-3] [s.sup.-1] (temperature, Young's modulus,
elastic limit, rupture strain, maximum volume strain).
If the stress in the part exceeds the
elastic limit, the material will start to plastically deform.
figure By ISAAC OTIDI AMUKE class="MsoNormalIn high school physics, one of the areas of study was the elasticity of materials, and therein lay a concept called
elastic limit. This upper threshold meant a material had stretched as far as it could, and therefore couldn't and wouldn't stretch any further without its size or shape being permanently deformed.
In the process of displaying his humanity in helping people who needed his attention, he apparently didn't realise that he had reached the
elastic limit of his health capability.
When the intensity of the perturbation induced in a solid exceeds the specific
elastic limit a series of elastic and plastic waves will emerge leading to some permanent deformation of the medium.
The unified strength theory has been applied successfully to analyze the
elastic limit, plastic limit capacities, and the dynamic response behavior for some structures under static and moderate impulsive load.
When the foam is compressed beyond its
elastic limit, it is both plastically deformed and damaged.
That there are court cases or controversies is not a bad thing; we have to stretch our democracy to its
elastic limit so that people can know.
This shows that although nanotubes are very rigid, they have an extremely high
elastic limit. Very few materials can do this without damage."
Not because he is not a guru; he was a first class brain, but there is an
elastic limit and beyond
elastic limit, there is a breaking point.
