  2. Strength of materials - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Strength_of_materials

    Maximum distortion energy theory, also known as maximum distortion energy theory of failure or von Mises–Hencky theory. This theory postulates that failure will occur when the distortion energy per unit volume due to the applied stresses in a part equals the distortion energy per unit volume at the yield point in uniaxial testing.

  3. Limit load (physics) - Wikipedia

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

    Limit load is the maximum load that a structure can safely carry. It's the load at which the structure is in a state of incipient plastic collapse. As the load on the structure increases, the displacements increases linearly in the elastic range until the load attains the yield value.

  4. Ultimate tensile strength - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ultimate_tensile_strength

    The ultimate tensile strength of a material is an intensive property; therefore its value does not depend on the size of the test specimen.However, depending on the material, it may be dependent on other factors, such as the preparation of the specimen, the presence or otherwise of surface defects, and the temperature of the test environment and material.

  5. Limit load - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Limit_load

    Limit load can refer to: Limit load (aeronautics) , the maximum load factor during flight Limit load (physics) , maximum load that a structure can safely carry

  6. Euler's critical load - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Euler's_critical_load

    This formula was derived in 1744 by the Swiss mathematician Leonhard Euler. [2] The column will remain straight for loads less than the critical load. The critical load is the greatest load that will not cause lateral deflection (buckling). For loads greater than the critical load, the column will deflect laterally.

  7. Compressive strength - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Compressive_strength

    By its basic definition the uniaxial stress is given by: ´ =, where F is load applied [N] and A is area [m 2]. As stated, the area of the specimen varies on compression. In reality therefore the area is some function of the applied load i.e. A = f (F). Indeed, stress is defined as the force divided by the area at the start of the experiment.

    The couple claimed to have renounced their citizenship and did not consider themselves to be "contracted" to the state - in other words, they had withdrawn from society.

  9. Hardness - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hardness

    Ultimate strength is an engineering measure of the maximum load a part of a specific material and geometry can withstand. Brittleness, in technical usage, is the tendency of a material to fracture with very little or no detectable plastic deformation beforehand. Thus in technical terms, a material can be both brittle and strong.
