A
Effect of a force that squeezes a material (squeezes)
3
Q
Define torsion
A
Effect of a force that twists a material (twists)
4
Q

7
Q
Define elastic deformation
A
The object returns to its original shape after the force is removed
8
Q
Define plastic deformation
A
The object remains permanently deformed after the force is removed
9
Q
Define fracture deformation
A
The object breaks when subjected to a force
10
Q
What is a constraint?
A
