Elasticity is the property of a material to return to its original shape and size after the removal of an applied force. It allows materials to undergo temporary deformation without permanent change. Elastic behavior is crucial in applications such as ...

Elastic hysteresis refers to the phenomenon where a material experiences a difference in its stress-strain behavior during loading and unloading cycles. When a material is stretched and then released the energy absorbed during deformation is not entirely recovered resulting in ...
The elastic limit is the maximum stress or force that a material can withstand without undergoing permanent deformation. Beyond this limit the material will not return to its original shape when the applied force is removed. Understanding the elastic limit ...
Elastic materials can return to their original shape and size after the removal of an applied force. This property allows them to undergo deformation without permanent change. Elasticity is essential in various applications, such as springs and rubber bands, where ...
Potential energy is the stored energy of an object due to its position or configuration. Common types include gravitational potential energy dependent on height and mass and elastic potential energy associated with the deformation of elastic materials. It plays a ...
