Deformálódó

Deformálódó is a Hungarian present participle and adjective meaning “that is deforming” or “undergoing deformation.” It is derived from the verb deformálódik (to deform, to undergo deformation) and describes objects or materials that are changing shape, size, or internal structure under external forces, temperature, or other conditions. The term is used mainly in scientific, engineering, and technical contexts, but can appear in general language when discussing processes of alteration.

Grammatical notes: In Hungarian, deformálódó is a participial adjective and agrees with the noun it modifies in number and case. The corresponding past participle is deformált, indicating that deformation has already occurred. The noun forms of the process are deformálódás (the act of deforming) and deformálás (the act of deformation).

Contexts and examples: The term is common in materials science, mechanics, geology, and biomechanics to describe a body in the course of deformation. Examples include: “A deformálódó felület a terhelés hatására megváltozik.”; “A deformálódó anyagok jellemzői a stressz és a hőmérséklet függvényében változnak.” These usages emphasize ongoing change rather than a final state.
