"microstrain" meaning in All languages combined

See microstrain on Wiktionary

Noun [English]

Forms: microstrains [plural]
Etymology: micro- + strain Etymology templates: {{prefix|en|micro|strain}} micro- + strain Head templates: {{en-noun|~}} microstrain (countable and uncountable, plural microstrains)
  1. (physics) A strain expressed in terms of parts per million Tags: countable, uncountable Categories (topical): Physics
    Sense id: en-microstrain-en-noun-aTF5~34h Categories (other): English terms prefixed with micro- Disambiguation of English terms prefixed with micro-: 64 36 Topics: natural-sciences, physical-sciences, physics
  2. (materials science) The root mean square of the variations in the lattice parameters across the individual crystallites, usually across microscopic distances, <ϵ²>^(1/2). By definition, it cannot be negative. In contrast, macrostrain refers to the overall change in the lattice parameters caused by a composition change or temperature change or pressure change.
