1 He used the clay plastically.

2 All structural materials behave plastically above their elastic range.

3 The shale beds in between generally deform plastically.

4 Stresses applied to plastically deform the metal are usually compressive.

5 By the graphic method, the slip-line field of plastically deformation area in external spline cold rolling process was set up.

6 In specimens of eutectoid steel T8, the cementite lamellae may be plastically deformed to some extent, and its tendency increases with the decrease of interlamellar spacing.

7 Yield stress is the stress at which a material begins to deform plastically.

8 When a material is subjected to a tensile or compressive load of sufficient magnitude, it will deform at first elastically and then plastically.

9 Later, under the weight of overlying sediments, this salt flowed plastically upward to form salt domes.
