Spanish term

condición deflexionada

Spanish to English Tech/Engineering Mechanics / Mech Engineering Informal Engineering Report
I cannot find a translation into English for this term anywhere. Does anyone know what it might be? The text is from a report written by an engineer in Argentina after visiting a company in Los Angeles, USA. He is discussing testing and new products being tested.

Here is the context:

Miden la variación de resistencia Axial y Rigidez en el tiempo, luego de someter las muestras a diferentes químicos en condición deflexionada.

Thanks for any help you can give me.

Found the answer The translation for this term in this context is deflected/deflection. Specifically as used in ASTM Standards it is "under deflected condition". Thanks for your help!

Question of "de" Lo que me confunde es que no es "flexionado" que significa "bent" en inglés, sino que es "DEflexionado". ¿Siempre es "bent" aunque tenga el prefijo "de"?

bended condition

Mi sugerencia. The tests are also made when the part is bended.
Note from asker:
Hi Leonardo, Thanks, but isn't bent flexionado? So would this be "unbent"? LMK what you think. Laura

The manufactured kraft/cardboard roll tubes are tested under stress, the failure is easier to detect.
