Elongation (Adhesives and Sealants)

The amount a material will stretch before breaking. It is expressed as a percentage of the original length.

Elongation (Astrology)

Distance of a planet, measured in degrees, from the Sun.

Elongation (Carpet)

The deformation in the direction of load caused by a tensile force. Elongation is measured in units of length (e.g., millimeters, inches) or calculated as a percentage of the original specimen length. Elongation may be measured at any specified load or at the breaking load.

Elongation (Construction)

Lengthening or stretching ability to accommodate movement.

Elongation (Import Cars)

The stretching of a material.

Elongation (Metal)

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

Elongation (Paranormal)

Paranormal extension of the physical body, reported in some mystics and physical mediums.

Elongation (Rope)

The deformation in the direction of load caused by a tensile force. Elongation is measured in units of length (e.g. millimeters, inches) or calculated as a percentage of the original specimen length. Elongation may be measured at any specified load or at the breaking load.

Elongation (Steel)

The percent increase of a given distance (usually 2 inches) prior to fracture during tensile testing.

Elongation (Textiles)

The increase in length of a specimen during a tensile test, expressed in units of length.

Elongation (Wire)

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