  2. Stress–strain curve - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stress–strain_curve

    In engineering and materials science, a stress–strain curve for a material gives the relationship between stress and strain.It is obtained by gradually applying load to a test coupon and measuring the deformation, from which the stress and strain can be determined (see tensile testing).

    Figure 2.1a Internal distribution of contact forces and couple stresses on a differential of the internal surface in a continuum, as a result of the interaction between the two portions of the continuum separated by the surface Figure 2.1b Internal distribution of contact forces and couple stresses on a differential of the internal surface in a continuum, as a result of the interaction between ...

  4. Stress–strain analysis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stress–strain_analysis

    Stress analysis is specifically concerned with solid objects. The study of stresses in liquids and gases is the subject of fluid mechanics.. Stress analysis adopts the macroscopic view of materials characteristic of continuum mechanics, namely that all properties of materials are homogeneous at small enough scales.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Expanded_polystyrene_concrete

    Expanded polystyrene (EPS) concrete (also known as EPScrete, EPS concrete or lightweight concrete) is a form of concrete known for its light weight made from cement and EPS (Expanded Polystyrene).

  6. Ready-mix concrete - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ready-mix_concrete

    Batch plants combine a precise amount of gravel, sand, water and cement by weight (as per a mix design formulation for the grade of concrete recommended by the structural engineer or architect), allowing specialty concrete mixtures to be developed and implemented on construction sites.

  7. Bending (metalworking) - Wikipedia
