Concept:
The correct match is,
Resilience - Capacity of a material to absorb energy elastically
Fatigue - Failure of material at loads less than that at normal conditions
Stiffness - Resistance of the material to elastic deformation
Elasticity - Ability of the material to return to the original shape when the load is removed
Resilience
- It is the total strain energy stored in a given volume of material within the elastic limit.
- On removal of a load, this energy is released. In other words, it is the area under the load-deflection curve within the elastic limit.
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.
Stiffness
- Stiffness of a material is the resistance offered to deformation, below the elastic limit.
- A material with a high value of Young’s modulus E is stiffer than the material with the lower value of Young’s modulus.
- Small values of E indicate flexible materials and a large value of E reflects stiffness and rigidity.
Elasticity
- The elasticity of a metal is its power of returning to its original shape after the applied force is released.
- Properly heat-treated spring is a good example of elasticity.
