Deflection Damage Criteria - ANSWER-Deflection criteria are commonly used for
damages such as dents or bows.
This is the most common type of damage inspection criteria. It is based on setting a
maximum dimensional limit on how far a component's surface can be permanently
deflected from its original position. If the deflection is greater than the limit, repair
is required.
