katkeilmiöt
Katkeilmiöt, often translated as "discontinuity phenomena" or "breakdown phenomena," refers to a range of effects observed in physics and engineering where a system or material undergoes a sudden and significant change in its behavior. These changes are typically triggered by exceeding a critical threshold in an applied parameter, such as stress, electric field, temperature, or pressure.
In materials science, katkeilmiöt can manifest as fracture in solids, yielding under stress, or phase transitions.
In electrical engineering, katkeilmiöt are commonly associated with dielectric breakdown. When an insulating material is subjected
