| 11. | Ductile materials can sustain large plastic deformations without fracture.
|
| 12. | Reaching the surface means the material undergoes plastic deformations.
|
| 13. | Because dislocation motion is hindered, plastic deformation cannot occur at normal stresses.
|
| 14. | Now as metals become warmer, their resistance to further plastic deformation decreases.
|
| 15. | I'd say it will undergo elastic deformation, not plastic deformation.
|
| 16. | The result is a permanent change of shape within the crystal and plastic deformation.
|
| 17. | Most materials in the linear-elastic category are usually capable of plastic deformation.
|
| 18. | Unlike most thermoplastics, polycarbonate can undergo large plastic deformations without cracking or breaking.
|
| 19. | Work hardening is a consequence of plastic deformation, a permanent change in shape.
|
| 20. | Therefore, these bonds break at relatively lower stresses, leading to plastic deformation.
