Ductility of a material can be defined as
A
Ability to undergo large permanent deformations in compression
B
Ability to recover its original form
C
Ability to undergo large permanent deformations in tension
D
All of the above
Correct Answer: Ability to undergo large permanent deformations in tension
Ductility of a material has been defined as a ability of a material to undergo permanent deformation through elongation and reduction in cross-sectional area or bending at room temperature without fracturing.
