DeformationDeformation
Deformation occurs when the defect is moving Deformation occurs when the defect is moving through a materialthrough a material
There are two types of deformationThere are two types of deformationPlasticPlastic
The material undergoes a change in shape that is not The material undergoes a change in shape that is not reversible reversible
ElasticElastic Deformation is reversibleDeformation is reversible

When the wind strength is strong enough, individual sand grains are lifted by the direct action of the shear stress exerted by the wind on the sand surface.
The change in wind direction causes the reorientation The change in wind direction causes the reorientation of a bed form thus producing the defect patternof a bed form thus producing the defect pattern

ConclusionConclusion In each case the defect pattern occurs as In each case the defect pattern occurs as
a means to relieve stress a means to relieve stress
In each the case the type of stress In each the case the type of stress induced was shear stressinduced was shear stressShear stress causes an angle to form when Shear stress causes an angle to form when
