Permanent Extension
Necking instability
The two pieces produced after break have a total length that
is slightly less than the length just before break by the amount
of the elastic extension produced by the maximum force.

For
ceramics it is larger
(by a factor of about 1.3)
as the volume subjected
to this maximum stress is
small and the probability
of finding a large flaw lying
is reduced.
