  2. Strain rate imaging - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Strain_rate_imaging

    Strain rate is the rate of deformation, and is negative during systole, when the ventricle shortens. Strain rate, however, becomes positive when the ventricle lengthens. Thus the more rapid phase shifts show details of the lengthening, displaying that it is not homogeneous. Strain rate colour curved anatomical M-mode. The yellow line is drawn ...

  3. Speckle tracking echocardiography - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Speckle_Tracking...

    Mathematically, three components of normal strain (εx, εy, and εz) and three components of shear strain (εxy, εxz, and εyz) are recognized. Congruently, when applied to the left ventricle , left ventricular deformation is defined by the three normal strains (longitudinal, circumferential, and radial) and three shear strains ...

  4. Strain (mechanics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Strain_(mechanics)

    In mechanics, strain is defined as relative deformation, compared to a reference position configuration. Different equivalent choices may be made for the expression of a strain field depending on whether it is defined with respect to the initial or the final configuration of the body and on whether the metric tensor or its dual is considered.

  5. TRIP steel - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/TRIP_steel

    This exponential strain hardening behavior represents the optimal curvature of the stress-strain curve while maintaining a minimum n for stable nonlocal plastic flow. It has been observed that TRIP steels exhibit this exponential strain hardening behavior when deformed at a temperature near to and above M s σ , thereby displaying an optimum in ...

  6. Poisson's ratio - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Poisson's_ratio

    Poisson's ratio of a material defines the ratio of transverse strain (x direction) to the axial strain (y direction)In materials science and solid mechanics, Poisson's ratio (symbol: ν ()) is a measure of the Poisson effect, the deformation (expansion or contraction) of a material in directions perpendicular to the specific direction of loading.

  7. Stress (mechanics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stress_(mechanics)

    The imposition of stress by an external agent usually creates some strain (deformation) in the material, even if it is too small to be detected. In a solid material, such strain will in turn generate an internal elastic stress, analogous to the reaction force of a stretched spring, tending to restore the material to its original undeformed state.

  8. Yield (engineering) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yield_(engineering)

    Yield Point Elongation (YPE) significantly impacts the usability of steel. In the context of tensile testing and the engineering stress-strain curve, the Yield Point is the initial stress level, below the maximum stress, at which an increase in strain occurs without an increase in stress.

  9. Compressive strength - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Compressive_strength

    That is the strain caused by the material will no longer vary linearly with the load. Creating localized shear bands on which the material will fail according to deformation theory. “The onset of localized banding does not necessarily constitute final failure of a material element, but it presumably is at least the beginning of the primary ...
