Q

When cyclic forces are applied a crack may neucleate and increase by small increments each time the force is applied. In time the crack will increase to a length at which the Force results in Fracture through the remaining material

Q

An indication of how easy it is to bend a piece of material without causing permanent information of fracture. It is dependent on the elastic modulus size shape of the specimen.

Q

Ability of one material to flow across the surface of another, determined by the contact angle between two materials and influenced by surface roughness and contamination. The contact angle is the angle between solid and liquid, liquid and air interface is measured through the liquid
