If bending moment sign change at a section then such as a point is called contraflexure.

Point of inflection - point where SF change its sign in SFD.

Inflection - SF change.
Contraflexure - BM change.
Contraflexure - BM change.

Contraflexure is the point where bending moment changes its sign, and the value of it is zero.

Point of inflection & point of contraflexure both are same.

When bending moment is zero shear force is maximum.

Meaning of contraflexure is contra opposite and flexure means bending totally it means zero bending moment or change in sign of bending moment.
