the increase in length expressed numerically as a percentage of the initial length.

A mechanical property of metal that is the degree to which a material may be bent, stretched, or compressed before it ruptures. It is a point between tensile strength and yield strength and is express [..]

The angular distance the Moon or a planet is from the Sun. The inner planets of Mercury and Venus are best seen when at maximum elongation, and thus are highest above the horizon before sunrise or after sunset.

The fractional increase in the length of a material stressed in tension.

1. This term is sued on orders specifying tensile test on which a minimum elongation between give points and distances has to be met. This elongation is expressed as percent of stretch over a given le [..]

Amount of permanent extension in the vicinity of the fractures in the tensile test; usually expressed as percentage of original gage length.

— The angle found between a planet and the Sun, from the perspective of the Earth.

The process by which either transcription

The increase in distance between two gauge marks at a yield point divided by the original distance between the marks. A zero value indicates that it measured less than one. Extender

The amount a tape is able to stretch without breaking, expressed in a percentage. Extended Liner (Dry Edge)

Lengthening or stretching out.

The amount of permanent stretch in a tensile test specimen before rupture.

Angular distance from the sun, measured in degrees, minutes, and seconds of angle.

(n) the quality of being elongated(n) an addition to the length of something(n) the act of lengthening something

 - The amount (% length) that a conductor or other material can stretch before breaking when a pulling force is applied.

The stretching of a fastener or material to the breaking point. The percent of elongation at rupture is determined by dividing the total length after stretching to the original length. Typically decre [..]

An elongation of a rigid body can be caused by mechanical stress or by temperature change. A plasma treatment can influence the elongation.    

testing.html">tensile test, expressed as a percentage of the original length. (2) The increase in length of material fibers during bending.

The increase in length of a material during a tensile test, usually expressed as a percentage of the original length.

Increase in length which occurs before a metal is fractured, when subjected to stress. This is usually expressed as a percentage of the original length and is a measure of the ductility of the metal. [..]

One of the mechanical properties of aluminum, i.e., the ability of the metal to stretch, or elongate, when it is subjected to an applied stress. The distance the metal will stretch from the point wher [..]

The increase in length expresses numerically as a percentage of the initial length.

In tensile testing, the increase in the gage length, measured after fracture of the specimen within the gage length, usually expressed as a percentage of the original gage length.

That amount that a Material Specimen will stretch before fracture (separation). Usually expressed as a percentage of the original length.

Is the stretchability or flexibility of cured urethane. Urethane must have the right flexibility to absorb body flex and the stiffness to support glass.

The fractional increase in length of a material stressed in tension.

The lengthening of a nascent RNA molecule by RNA Polymerase during transcription.

A process of Genetic Translation, when an amino acid is transferred from its cognate Transfer RNA to the lengthening chain of Peptides.

Distance of Moon, or planet, from Sun, when measured in celestial longitude. Elongation of metal is increase in length when due to tensile stresses; also applied to the maximum amount that it will inc [..]

The angular distance of a body of the solar system from the sun; the angle at the earth between lines to the sun and another celestial body of the solar system. The greatest elongation is the maximum [..]

Increase in fiber length or deformation from stretching. Measured as a percentage of original length.

The degree in which a product will stretch under tension before it breaks. This degree is expressed in a percentage of its original length. For example, a tensile elongation of 10% means the product s [..]

Amount of permanent extension around the fracture area in a tension test.​

Measure of the ductility of a material determined in a tensile test. It is the increase in gage length (measured after rupture) divided by original gage length. Higher elongation indicates higher ductility. Elongation cannot be used to predict behavior of materials subjected to sudden or repeated loading.

The simplest definition for an elongated profile is one that is lengthening; a profile that is elongating represents a market that is proceeding directionally on a convictional course; a non-elongating Profile represents a market that lacks directional conviction. See below:

The act of lengthening, or the state of being lengthened; protraction; extension. That which lengthens out; continuation. The ratio of the extension of a material to the length of the material p [..]
