Elasticity (彈性, elasticity, North Korean standard: twimseong) is the property of a material that changes shape when a force is applied but returns to its original form when the force is removed. In principle, it is a property seen in solids. In English it is called elasticity, and etymologically it derives from a Greek word meaning "to return."
