Properties of materials Flashcards
Types of Stress Shear
forces directed parallel to each other not along the same straight line
Types of Stress
Tension
elongation forces are directed away from each other in the same straight line, molecules resist being pulled apart
Types of Stress Compression
shrinkage forces directed toward each other on the same straight line molecules resist being forced more closely together NOTE: different than Shear in that it IS on the same straight line as opposed to NPT
Stress
Ration of force per area
Types of Stress Torsion
Twisting forces
Types of Stress Bending
results from a bending moment
Types of Stress
Shear Tension Torsion Bending Compression
Strain
Deformation caused by stress measured as a % of Deformation = deformation/length
Proportional limit
The greatest stress sustained without deviation from the linear proportionality of the stress and strain.
In Proportional limit below A is_______ and is called______
reversible strain occurs Elastic Region exception superelastic materials
In proportional limit Above A is ___________and is called the ________
irreversible or permanent strain plastic region exception superelastic materials
Elastic limit
The greatest stress sustained without permanent deformation Note: for lineraly elastic materials the PROPORTIONAL LIMIT AND ELASTIC LIMIT THE SAME STRESS WITHIN THE STRUCTURE. exception are the superelastic materials
Elastic deformation
Non permanent
Plastic deformation
permanent
Yield strength
The stress at which the material begins to function in a plastic manner. Limited permanent strain has occurred .2%
Yield strength is slightly______ than the proportional limit because it includes a slight amount of permanent deformation
Higher
Permanent deformation can be good or bad in the oral cavity in what two ways
- Destructively- fillings crowns bridges (causes improper occlusion and marginal breakdown) 2. Constructively- orthodontic wires
