tensile strengthRatio of the maximum load a material can support without fracture when being stretched to the original area of a cross section of the material. When stresses less than the tensile strength are removed, a material completely or partially returns to its original size and shape. As the stress approaches that of the tensile strength, a material that has begun to flow forms a narrow, constricted region that is easily fractured. Tensile strengths are measured in units of force per unit area. See also deformation and flow. How to thank TFD for its existence?

| As expected, the resultant tensile strength is a function of the amount of fiber added and the mechanical properties of the ceramic fibers. tensile strength and elongation exceeded their property objectives at all test conditions; CRP's Windform laser sintering process family currently comprises Windform GF, Windform PRO and Windform PRO B whose identifying characteristics are the stiffness and the Ultimate Tensile Strength (UTS). |
