Short Description of Topic

The Main Idea

Ductility is a solids ability to deform under tensile stress. it s similar to malleability, which characterizes a materials ability to deform under an applied stress. ductility is an important property in material science and metal-working industries, where solids are deformed nd molded with outside forces.

A Mathematical Model

Mathematically, ductility can be defined as the fracture strain, or the tensile strain along one axis that causes a fracture to occur. Fractures range from brittle fractures to fully ductile fractures, resulting in very different physical appearances associated with the different types.
