The coefficient of friction is dimensionless with values between zero and one. The number characterising the force necessary to slide or roll one material along the€surface of another. If an object has a weight N and the coefficient of friction is μ, then the force F necessary to move it without acceleration along a level surface is F = μN.

The first stress in a material, usually less than the maximum attainable stress, at which an increase in strain occurs without an increase in stress.

The load at which a sudden drop in the flow curve occurs is called the upper yield point. The constant load shown on the flow curve is the lower yield point. (yield strength, yield stress, Rel, Rel) The stress at which the onset of permanent (plastic) deformation (yielding) occurs in a body under increasing loading. In some materials, a yield-point phenomenon occurs in which stress falls on initial yielding and plastic deformation continues without increase in stress as strain increases further. The yield criterion is the combination of normal and shear stresses which produces yielding under multiaxial loading. 材料中的第一应力，通常小于可达到的最大应力，在该应力下应变增加而应力不增加。只有某些金属——表现出从弹性变形到塑性变形的局部、非均匀类型的金属——才会产生屈服点。如果屈服后应力降低，可区分上屈服点和下屈服点。流量曲线突然下降时的荷载称为上屈服点。流量曲线上显示的恒定载荷为较低屈服点。（屈服强度，屈服应力，Rel）在不断增加的载荷下，物体发生永久（塑性）变形（屈服）时的应力。在某些材料中，会出现屈服点现象，即应力在初始屈服时下降，随着应变进一步增加，塑性变形继续，而应力没有增加。屈服准则是在多轴载荷下产生屈服的正应力和剪应力的组合。 |
