  • tahkise suhteline mahumuutus, tavaliselt hüdrostaatilise surve all, termilise paisumise või faasimuutuse tulemusena, mille korral keha kuju säilib (vt paisumine, kontraktsioon; vrd distortsioon/kujumuutus)
    Good to know
    • Tahke keha mõõtmete või mahu mis tahes muutus termiliste, mehaaniliste või muude mõjude toimel, mille korral keha kuju säilib.
  • relative volume alteration of a solid body, usually under the hydrostatic pressure, or owing to thermal expansion or phase transformations while preserving its shape (see: expansion, contraction; compare: distortion)
    Good to know
    • Any change in the dimensions or volume of a solid body due to thermal, mechanical, or other effects while preserving its shape.
