Specialty Definition: PROPORTIONAL LIMIT

DomainDefinition

Engineering & Technology

The maximum stress at which strain remains directly proportional to stress. Source: European Union. (references)

Mining

The greatest stress that a material is capable of withstanding without deviation from proportionality of stress to strain (Hooke's law). In the case of rocks, this term and "elastic limit" are restricted to short-time tests; rocks may slowly and permanently deform in periods of longduration, even at stresses below the short-time proportional limit.
