Taivutuksenkestävyys
Taivutuksenkestävyys, often translated as flexural strength or bending strength, is a fundamental mechanical property of materials. It describes a material's ability to resist deformation under a bending load. When a material is subjected to bending, one side experiences tensile stress (stretching) while the opposite side experiences compressive stress (squeezing). Taivutuksenkestävyys quantifies the maximum stress a material can withstand before it begins to permanently deform or fracture.
This property is typically determined through a flexural strength test, such as a three-point or four-point
Taivutuksenkestävyys is a crucial consideration in engineering design, particularly for components that will experience bending forces
