bền va
Definition
- Adjective:
- Resilient (in physics): Having the property of resilience; able to withstand shock or impact without permanent deformation or rupture. This is a technical term primarily used in materials science and engineering.
- Tough, shock-resistant: Describes a material's ability to absorb energy when it is deformed elastically and release that energy upon unloading. It is a measure of a material's toughness under impact loading.
Usage Examples
- Adjective:
- Thép có đặc tính bền va tốt. (Steel has good resilience.)
- Vật liệu này rất bền va, có thể chịu được tác động mạnh. (This material is very shock-resistant and can withstand strong impacts.)
- Sức bền va của hợp kim này được cải thiện sau xử lý nhiệt. (The impact toughness of this alloy is improved after heat treatment.)
Advanced Usage
- The term is most commonly encountered in technical and industrial contexts, such as in specifications for metals, polymers, or construction materials.
- It is often part of the compound noun "sức bền va" (impact resilience/toughness), which is the measurable property.
Variants and Related Words
- Sức bền va (n): Impact resilience; impact toughness. The quantitative measure of a material's ability to absorb impact energy.
- Sức bền va là một chỉ số quan trọng trong cơ học vật liệu. (Impact toughness is an important index in material mechanics.)
Synonyms
- Resilient: Able to recoil or spring back into shape after bending, stretching, or being compressed.
- Shock-resistant: Not easily damaged by impact.
- Tough (in a technical sense): Able to absorb energy and plastically deform without fracturing.
Notes
- "Bền va" is a specialized technical term. Its everyday usage is limited. The more common general word for "durable" or "long-lasting" is simply "bền".
- The concept is distinct from hardness or strength; it specifically relates to performance under sudden impact or shock loading.
