[Le principe de] l'essai de traction [est de] solliciter une éprouvette en traction uniaxiale jusqu'à rupture pour déterminer ses caractéristiques mécaniques. À partir des mesures obtenues [charge maximale de l'essai (Fm), charge apparente à limite d'élasticité (Fe), charge ultime à l'instant de rupture (Fu), longueur ultime entre repères (Lu)], il est possible de déterminer, [notamment], la résistance mécanique à la traction (Rm), la limite élastique (Re) et l'allongement (A %). 3, record 1, French, - r%C3%A9sistance%20%C3%A0%20la%20traction
Record number: 1, Textual support number: 2 CONT
[Cette courbe, pratiquement rectiligne et interrompue (où l'abscisse est la déformation et l'ordonnée est la contrainte)], typique d'un comportement fragile, nous montre un matériau qui se rompt sans être sorti du domaine élastique. La contrainte à la rupture (ou limite de rupture ou résistance à la traction) typique vaut 70 MPa pour un verre, 350 MPa pour une alumine, 500 MPa pour un carbure de silicium, 1000 Mpa pour le diamant, qui tous présentent ce comportement fragile. 5, record 1, French, - r%C3%A9sistance%20%C3%A0%20la%20traction
