When a material is subjected to repeated stress, it fails at stresses below the ultimate strength of the material or even below the Yield strength of material. Such type of failure is known as: Correct Answer Fatigue

Explanation:

Fatigue

  • When a material is subjected to repeated stresses, it fails at stresses below the yield point stresses. Such type of failure of a material is known as fatigue.
  • In materials science, fatigue is the progressive and localized structural damage that occurs when a material is subjected to cyclic loading.
