The simple relation OmegaOmega-alpha = 0, where Omega is a measurable quantity such as strain and A and alpha are empirical constants, describes the behavior of materials in terminal stages of failure under conditions of approximately constant stress and temperature. Applicable to metals and alloys, ice, concrete, polymers, rock, and soil, the relation may be extended to conditions of variable and multiaxial stress and may be used to predict time to failure.
简单关系 OmegaOmega-alpha = 0，其中 Omega 是一个可测量的量，如应变，A 和 alpha 是经验常数，描述了材料在大约恒定的应力和温度条件下失效的终末阶段的行为。适用于金属和合金、冰、混凝土、聚合物、岩石和土壤，该关系可以扩展到变化和多轴应力的条件，并可用于预测失效时间。
