WHAT DOES ELASTIC LIMIT MEAN IN ENGLISH?

Yield (engineering)

A yield strength or yield point of a material is defined in engineering and materials science as the stress at which a material begins to deform plastically. Prior to the yield point the material will deform elastically and will return to its original shape when the applied stress is removed. Once the yield point is passed, some fraction of the deformation will be permanent and non-reversible. In the three-dimensional space of the principal stresses, an infinite number of yield points form together a yield surface. Knowledge of the yield point is vital when designing a component since it generally represents an upper limit to the load that can be applied. It is also important for the control of many materials production techniques such as forging, rolling, or pressing. In structural engineering, this is a soft failure mode which does not normally cause catastrophic failure or ultimate failure unless it accelerates buckling.

Definition of elastic limit in the English dictionary

The definition of elastic limit in the dictionary is the greatest stress that can be applied to a material without causing permanent deformation.
