Here there is a flowing of the metal laterally,and then vertically, finding escape around the edges of the is a condition of confined or restricted flow, and evidently theelastic limit here will be much higher than with the simple column. In Fig. 64C, the surface is compressed by a cylinder, thegreatest distortion being at the middle of the area of
