1Deformation mechanism map — A deformation mechanism map is a way of representing the dominant deformation mechanism in a material loaded under a given set of conditions and thereby its likely failure mode. Deformation mechanism maps consist of some kind of stress plotted… …
2Deformation mechanism maps — A deformation mechanism map is a way of determining the expected failure mode of a material loaded under a given set of conditions. Typical deformation mechanism maps consist of some kind of stress plotted against some kind of temperature axis.… …

4Radioisotope piezoelectric generator — A Radioisotope piezoelectric generator converts energy stored in the radioactive material directly into motion to generate electricity by the repeated deformation of a piezoelectric material. This approach creates a high impedance source and,… …
5Radial Force Variation — Tires provide for steering, traction, braking, and load support by transmitting forces between the vehicle and the road. Radial Force Variation (RFV) is a property of a tire that characterizes its dynamic behavior of these forces. High values of… …
6Lateral Force Variation — Tires provide for steering, traction, braking, and load support by transmitting forces between the vehicle and the road. Lateral Force Variation (LFV) is a property of a tire that characterizes its dynamic behavior of these forces. High values of …
