Elasticity (physics)
In physics, elasticity (from Greek ἐλαστός "ductible") is the ability of a body to resist a distorting influence and to return to its original size and shape when that influence or force is removed.

Foam
Foam is a substance formed by trapping pockets of gas in a liquid or solid.
New!!: Fragile matter and Foam · See more »
Granular material
A granular material is a conglomeration of discrete solid, macroscopic particles characterized by a loss of energy whenever the particles interact (the most common example would be friction when grains collide).

Isotropy
Isotropy is uniformity in all orientations; it is derived from the Greek isos (ἴσος, "equal") and tropos (τρόπος, "way").

Materials science
The interdisciplinary field of materials science, also commonly termed materials science and engineering is the design and discovery of new materials, particularly solids.

Michael Cates
Michael Elmhirst Cates (born 5 May 1961) is a British physicist.

Plastic
Plastic is material consisting of any of a wide range of synthetic or semi-synthetic organic compounds that are malleable and so can be molded into solid objects.
New!!: Fragile matter and Plastic · See more »
Sand
Sand is a naturally occurring granular material composed of finely divided rock and mineral particles.

Shaving
Shaving is the removal of hair, by using a razor or any other kind of bladed implement, to slice it down—to the level of the skin or otherwise.

Shear stress
A shear stress, often denoted by (Greek: tau), is the component of stress coplanar with a material cross section.

Stress (mechanics)
In continuum mechanics, stress is a physical quantity that expresses the internal forces that neighboring particles of a continuous material exert on each other, while strain is the measure of the deformation of the material.
