English term or phrase: Yielding of lug at screw
Bonjour,

Pour un traduction sur le fonctionnement de raffineuses de chocolate, je me trouve devant une liste de termes qui correspondent aux modes d'échecs critiques de la machine, et ce sans contexte.

Yielding of lug at screw me pose problème, avez-vous déjà rencontré le terme?

Merci beaucoup pour votre aide,

Audrey

rupture de la patte (de fixation) à la vis


Explanation:
"Discount Tire overtightened your lugs. They went beyond the elastic range of steel and the lug yielded. There is no possible way to remove them without breaking the now work hardened brittle steel. They owe you new lugs, but I wouldn't let them touch it given their poor work to date. Even the ones that didn't snap are still probably in the yield range and will eventually fail once they are "worked" some more."

agree  Tony M: Certainly 'patte (de fixation)' for lug; without more context, hard to be sure exactly what the 'at screw' means; possibly 'at the position of the screw hole' — presumably that's where the metal is narrowest.

neutral  Tony M: Given that this is apparently a fault description, I don't think 'contrainte limite' is really a good solution for rendering 'yielding' / Yes, of course; but there's no 'contrainte' in s/t; 'yielding' is 'the action of « rupture »'

yielding of lug at screw
déformation (plastique) de la patte au niveau de la vis


Explanation:
yielding = déformation plastique (i.e. irréversible) ou écoulement plastique ou plastification
La patte est déformée de façon permanente (yielding) sans être rompue (fracture). La rupture peut intervenir ultérieurement pour une déformation plus importante.
NB : Types de défaillances mécaniques
- Défaillances mécaniques par déformation plastique : sous contrainte mécanique ou sous contrainte thermique (fluage et relaxation)
- Défaillances mécanique par ruptures ductile (après déformation plastique importante), fragile (après très peu de déformation plastique) ou de fatigue (après sollicitations cycliques)
