Japanese term or phrase: 明確な破断点だけでなく,微小な破断点
Source sentence:
得られた破断曲線には,明確な破断点だけでなく,微小な破断点も含まれていた.

破断曲線: force deformation curve
破断点: fracture point

My attempt:
Not only larger fracture points but also smaller fracture points?

Context:
Compression test for tiny objects (about 2mm length)

not only clear (obvious, distict) rupture point but also microrupture points


Explanation:
This may relate to compressive test of very brittle material. If it is so, there is no distinct plastic zone and ultimate compressive strength may be equal to rupture point.
