materjali plastse deformeerumise võime kuni purunemiseni, mida tavaliselt hinnatakse tõmbekatsel suhtelise pikenemisena või katkeahenemisena (vt suhteline pikenemine, katkeahenemine; vrd plastsus, survedeformeeritavus)
Good to know
Venivus iseloomustab materjali või pinde omadust plastselt deformeeruda tõmbejõudude toimel erinevalt survedeformeeritavusest mis iseloomustab materjali võimet plastselt deformeeruda survejõudude toimel.
the ability of a material to deform plastically before fracturing, typically measured by elongation or reduction in area in a tensile test (see: percent elongation, reduction in area; compare: plasticity, malleability)
Good to know
Ductility refers to a material or a coating ability to deform under tensile stresses without breaking. Ductilty may be measured by technological tests as height of cupping in cupping test, or by radius or angle of bend in a bend test etc.
