Proof resilience may be defined as
- A. Work done in straining the material
- B. Max. strain energy that can be stored in a material per unit volume
- C. Max. strain energy that can be stored in a material under elastic condition
- D. Max. load which can be applied to a member
Answer: C. Max. strain energy that can be stored in a material under elastic condition
Explanation: Proof resilience is the maximum strain energy stored up to the elastic limit.
