  2. Hooke's law - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hooke's_law

    The three-dimensional form of Hooke's law can be derived using Poisson's ratio and the one-dimensional form of Hooke's law as follows. Consider the strain and stress relation as a superposition of two effects: stretching in direction of the load (1) and shrinking (caused by the load) in perpendicular directions (2 and 3 ...

  3. Stress–strain curve - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stressstrain_curve

    The stress is proportional to the strain, that is, obeys the general Hooke's law, and the slope is Young's modulus. In this region, the material undergoes only elastic deformation. The end of the stage is the initiation point of plastic deformation. The stress component of this point is defined as yield strength (or upper yield point, UYP for short

  4. Constitutive equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Constitutive_equation

    The first constitutive equation (constitutive law) was developed by Robert Hooke and is known as Hooke's law.It deals with the case of linear elastic materials.Following this discovery, this type of equation, often called a "stress-strain relation" in this example, but also called a "constitutive assumption" or an "equation of state" was commonly used.

  5. Young's modulus - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Young's_modulus

    Young's modulus represents the factor of proportionality in Hooke's law, which relates the stress and the strain. However, Hooke's law is only valid under the assumption of an elastic and linear response. Any real material will eventually fail and break when stretched over a very large distance or with a very large force; however, all solid ...

  6. Lamé parameters - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lamé_parameters

    In homogeneous and isotropic materials, these define Hooke's law in 3D, = + ⁡ (), where σ is the stress tensor, ε the strain tensor, I the identity matrix and tr the trace function. Hooke's law may be written in terms of tensor components using index notation as σ i j = 2 μ ε i j + λ δ i j ε k k , {\displaystyle \sigma _{ij}=2\mu ...

  7. Elasticity (physics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Elasticity_(physics)

    For small strains, the measure of stress that is used is the Cauchy stress while the measure of strain that is used is the infinitesimal strain tensor; the resulting (predicted) material behavior is termed linear elasticity, which (for isotropic media) is called the generalized Hooke's law.

  8. Anelasticity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anelasticity

    These integral expressions are a generalization of Hooke's law in the case of anelasticity, and they show that material acts almost as they have a memory of their history of stress and strain. These two of equations imply that there is a relation between the J(t) and M(t).

  9. Deformation (engineering) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Deformation_(engineering)

    This is not true since the actual area will decrease while deforming due to elastic and plastic deformation. The curve based on the original cross-section and gauge length is called the engineering stressstrain curve, while the curve based on the instantaneous cross-section area and length is called the true stressstrain curve. Unless ...
