👉 Sensile is a term in physics and engineering that refers to a material property that can change its state when subjected to an external force. Sensilicities are related to the ability of materials to resist deformation under different forces, such as tension, compression, or shear. Sensilicities are often described by a ratio of the strain energy stored per unit area to the original stress. They are important in the design and analysis of structures that require high strength-to-weight ratios.
