  2. Plasticity (physics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plasticity_(physics)

    Plasticity in a crystal of pure metal is primarily caused by two modes of deformation in the crystal lattice: slip and twinning. Slip is a shear deformation which moves the atoms through many interatomic distances relative to their initial positions.

  3. List of dialects of English - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_dialects_of_English

    Dialects can be defined as "sub-forms of languages which are, in general, mutually comprehensible." [1] English speakers from different countries and regions use a variety of different accents (systems of pronunciation) as well as various localized words and grammatical constructions.

  4. Lode coordinates - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lode_Coordinates

    This plot shows a typical meridional profile of several plasticity models: von Mises, linear Drucker–Prager, Mohr–Coulomb, Gurson, and Bigoni–Piccolroaz. The upper portion of the plot depicts yield surface behavior in triaxial extension and the lower portion depicts yield surface behavior in triaxial compression.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plasticity

    Plasticity (physics), in engineering and physics, the propensity of a solid material to undergo permanent deformation under load; Behavioral plasticity, change in an organism's behavior in response to exposure to stimuli; Neuroplasticity, in neuroscience, how entire brain structures, and the brain itself, can change as a result of experience

  8. Hosford yield criterion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hosford_yield_criterion

    The plane stress, anisotropic, Hosford yield surface for four values of n and R=2.0. The Logan-Hosford yield criterion for anisotropic plasticity [2] [3] is similar to Hill's generalized yield criterion and has the form

  9. Rock mass plasticity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rock_mass_plasticity

    In geotechnical engineering, rock mass plasticity is the study of the response of rocks to loads beyond the elastic limit. Historically, conventional wisdom has it that rock is brittle and fails by fracture , while plasticity (irreversible deformation without fracture) is identified with ductile materials such as metals .
