5. Glossary
-
Law of behavior; constitutive relation
Mathematical model describing the interactions between stress and the response of a material or structure to that stress.
-
Non linéarités matérielles; material nonlinearities
All the phenomena on the scale of the material leading to a non-linear relationship between the stress and the response of the material to this stress.
-
Elasticity
Mechanical behavior of a material in which it returns to its original shape when the stress to which it is subjected is removed.
-
Tensor invariant; tensorial invariant
Scalar expressed as a function of the components of a tensor and having the property of invariance by change of tensor basis....
