In materials science, resilience refers to the ability of a material to absorb energy when it is deformed elastically and then release that energy upon unloading. It is a measure of how well a material can withstand stress and return to its original shape after the stress is removed. Resilience is particularly important in applications where materials are subjected to cyclic loading or impacts.
