Question

Criteria for determining when a substance has this property are often mapped by separating hydrostatic and deviatoric components via projection onto the pi plane. Drucker’s postulate is a sufficient condition for the stability of materials with the property. EPFM theory must be used when a zone with this property around cracks is large. The Frank-Read mechanism leads to the creation of dislocations in materials with this property, (-5[1])increasing the material’s (*) toughness. A material has this property when a certain vector that lies outside a cylinder by the von Mises criterion. Work hardening is used to strengthen materials with this property, the onset of which is given by the yield point and sees materials (10[1])undergo necking. For 10 (10[1])points, name this solid property where an applied force causes a permanent (-5[1])shape (10[1])change, in contrast to elasticity. ■END■ (10[2])

ANSWER: plasticity [accept plastic deformation; reject “elasticity”]
