  2. Plasticity (physics) - Wikipedia

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

    In physics and materials science, plasticity (also known as plastic deformation) is the ability of a solid material to undergo permanent deformation, a non-reversible change of shape in response to applied forces.

  3. Plasticity - Wikipedia

    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

    The study of the physics of continuous materials: Solid mechanics The study of the physics of continuous materials with a defined rest shape. Elasticity Describes materials that return to their rest shape after applied stresses are removed. Plasticity Describes materials that permanently deform after a sufficient applied stress. Rheology

  5. Flow plasticity theory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flow_plasticity_theory

    Plastic deformation of a thin metal sheet. Flow plasticity is a solid mechanics theory that is used to describe the plastic behavior of materials. [1] Flow plasticity theories are characterized by the assumption that a flow rule exists that can be used to determine the amount of plastic deformation in the material.

  6. Viscoplasticity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Viscoplasticity

    The SCGL model is used extensively by the shock physics community. The Zerilli–Armstrong (ZA) model [ 28 ] is a simple physically based model that has been used extensively. A more complex model that is based on ideas from dislocation dynamics is the Mechanical Threshold Stress (MTS) model. [ 29 ]

    Image credits: viralsumo1 #6. 1. Gentle Admittedly men are quite strong and can sometimes come off as a bull in a China shop. When a man is considerate and gentle, it genuinely makes my heart melt.

  9. Plastic limit theorems - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plastic_limit_theorems

    The two plastic limit theorems apply to any elastic-perfectly plastic body or assemblage of bodies. Lower limit theorem: If an equilibrium distribution of stress can be found which balances the applied load and nowhere violates the yield criterion, the body (or bodies) will not fail, or will be just at the point of failure.
