Physics definition for breaking point with respect to a stress versus strain graph?
Fracture point
Is a compound fracture a fracture where the bone is broken into many fragments?
depends on the point of impact and the speeed but no it does not always result in a compound fracture
What happens when rocks are stressed past the point at which they can maintain their integrity?
They fracture
When does a fault or a fracture in rocks occur?
A fault is a fracture specific to tectonic processes: the rock is stretched or compressed to breaking-point, and the fracture will be accompanied by displacement of one side relative to the other across the break. Other fractures can be associated with nearby faults and folding.
What is the break of a mineral called?

What is a stable pelvic fracture?

What is a simple fracture and a compound fracture?
a fracture in which skin is intact at site of fracture is a closed fracture or simple fracture whereas compound fracture or an open fracture is a fracture in which the skin is perforated and there is an open wound down to the site of the fracture.
What is a curved fracture pattern is called?
This has been answered before but there was no explanation given for the curve. Materials that do not have fracture planes such as glass and obsidian (a natural glass-like mineral) do not follow any particular structural arrangement when fracturing. The curve results from the distribution of stresses radiating from the fracture start point. The fracture pattern is called conchoidal.
Which is the name for a broken bone?
A broken bone is often called a "fracture" or "bone fracture". Some examples from the Wikipedia entry on bone fracture. * Complete Fracture- A fracture in which bone fragments separate completely. * Incomplete Fracture- A fracture in which the bone fragments are still partially joined. * Linear Fracture- A fracture that is parallel to the bone's long axis. * Transverse Fracture- A fracture that is at a right angle to the bone's long axis. * Oblique Fracture- A fracture that is diagonal to a bone's long axis. * Compression Fracture-A fracture that usually occurs in the vertebrae. * Spiral Fracture- A fracture where at least one part of the bone has been twisted. * Comminuted Fracture- A fracture causing many fragments. * Compacted Fracture- A fracture caused when bone fragments are driven into each other * Open Fracture- A fracture when the bone reaches the skin * Bug fracture- A fracture when the bone is in place, but the fracture has the appearance of a crushed insect.
