Answer 1

The production process for metal sheets when loaded beyond their yield stress is commonly referred to as **plastic deformation** or **plastic forming**. In this process, the material permanently deforms under the applied load, as it surpasses its yield stress, leading to changes in shape without breaking. Techniques such as bending, stamping, and deep drawing are often used in this context.
