| Burr 2 | (english) Roughness left by a cutting operation such as slitting, shearing, blanking , etc. |
| Butyl Stearate | (english) (BSO)A lubricant applied on electrolytic chromium coated steel |
| Gravity: | (english) An attractive force between two objects; each object accelerates at a rate equal to the attractive force divided by the object's mass. Objects near the surface of the earth tend to accelerate toward the earth's center at a rate of ; this value is often called the gravitational constant and denoted as g. |
| Linear: | (english) A structure is said to behave linearly when its the deformation response is directly proportional to the loading (i.e. doubling the load doubles the displacement response). For a material, linear means that the stress is directly proportional to the strain. |
| Linear Elastic: | (english) A force-displacement relationship which is both linear and elastic. For a structure, this means the deformation is proportional to the loading, and deformations disappear on unloading. For a material, the concept is the same except strain substitutes for deformation, and stress substitutes for load. |
| Modulus of elasticity: | (english) The proportional constant between stress and strain for material with linear elastic behavior: calculated as stress divided by strain. Modulus of elasticity can be interpreted as the slope of the stress-strain graph. It is usually denoted as E, sometimes known as Young's Modulus Y, or E-Modulus. |
| Shear: | (english) An system of internal forces whose resultant is a force acting perpendicular to the longitudinal axis of a structural member or assembly: sometimes called shear force. |
| Shear stress: | (english) Stress acting parallel to an imaginary plane cut through an object. |
| Shear strain: | (english) Strain measuring the intensity of racking in the material. Shear strain is measured as the change in angle of the corners of a small square of material. |
| Shear modulus: | (english) The ratio of shear stress divided by the corresponding shear strain in a linear elastic material. |
