Definition of deformation in English:

deformation

noun ˌdiːfɔːˈmeɪʃ(ə)n
mass noun
  • 1The action or process of deforming or distorting.

    solid rock undergoing slow deformation
    Example sentencesExamples
    • In physics, something plastic is capable of undergoing continuous deformation without rupture or relaxation; in biology it denotes the ability to form new tissue.
    • There was asphalt cracking due to tensile strain resulting from plastic deformation within the crushed rock.
    • Thus it was able to undergo intense transformations, such as mechanical deformation or metamorphism, but remain always in proximity to the surface.
    • Color-coding depicts the direction and magnitude of the deformation, with red indicating deformation along the outward normal of the structure and blue along the inward normal.
    • Quartz veins are abundant throughout the property and most appear to be related to Cretaceous deformation of the country rocks.
    • He proposed that insight into the mechanism of rock deformation could be obtained by subjecting confined samples to high pressures in the laboratory.
    • This again is a criterion of little value in high-strain rocks, where fine banding is a common consequence of deformation.
    • Bridges can be designed either to remain elastic during the design earthquake or to undergo irreversible but controlled deformation or displacement.
    • These descriptions indicate that there has been no significant crystal deformation in these rocks.
    • This process involves two complementary kinds of deformation.
    • At high enough stresses, irreversible processes accompany deformation.
    • The outer zones accommodate the most deformation and energy absorption, while less deformation takes place the closer the collision approaches the passenger compartment.
    • It is a light grey, porphyritic volcanic to subvolcanic rock, which shows almost no deformation.
    • The possibility that this scrappy specimen has also undergone very significant deformation should be considered.
    • The Catalinas, in all of their grandeur, are going through that process of deformation right now.
    • He may have some recollection of a study of cattle in fields downwind of the Steelworks, which indicated that fluorides deposited in these fields eaten by cattle produced discoloration of teeth and deformation of hooves.
    • It indicates that some deformation and erosion of the Annascaul rocks occurred prior to deposition of the Ballynane Formation.
    • Subsequently, between the Late Proterozoic and the Mesozoic, the rocks throughout the region suffered periodic episodes of deformation.
    • As a result, the culverts may undergo excessive deformation or failure rendering the culverts unserviceable.
    • When the load exceeds a value corresponding to the yield strength, the specimen undergoes gross plastic deformation.
    Synonyms
    warp, twist, contortion, bend, buckle, deformity, curve, curvature, malformation, disfigurement, crookedness
    1. 1.1 The result of a distorting process.
      the deformation will be temporary
      Example sentencesExamples
      • What's more impressive is the sheer amount of attention paid to in-game facial deformation based on the amount of damage you inflict or receive.
      • Fracture is an inhomogeneous form of deformation which can be viewed on different levels.
      • Fatigue results in a brittle-appearing fracture, with no gross deformation at the fracture.
      • The X-ray showed no apparent damage or deformation.
      • If you weigh 80 kg or more, you must be especially vigilant and have your bicycle inspected regularly for any evidence of cracks, deformation, or other signs of fatigue or stress.
      Synonyms
      distortion, malformation, contortion, buckling, twisting, warping, bending, wrenching, misshaping
      twist, warp, bend, buckle, curve
    2. 1.2count noun An altered form of a word, especially one used to avoid overt profanity (e.g. dang for damn).
