2. Tension (physics) - Wikipedia

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

   Tension is the pulling or stretching force transmitted axially along an object such as a string, rope, chain, rod, truss member, or other object, so as to stretch or pull apart the object. In terms of force, it is the opposite of compression. Tension might also be described as the action-reaction pair of forces acting at each end of an object.

3. Truss rod - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Truss_rod

   Truss rods are frequently made out of steel, though graphite and other materials are sometimes used.. The truss rod can be adjusted to compensate for expansion or contraction in the neck wood due to changes in humidity or temperature, or to compensate for changes in the tension of the strings (the thicker the guitar string, the higher its tension when tuned to correct pitch) or using different ...

4. Threaded rod - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Threaded_rod

   A threaded rod, also known as a stud, is a relatively long rod that is threaded on both ends; the thread may extend along the complete length of the rod. [1] They are designed to be used in tension. [2] Threaded rod in bar stock form is often called all-thread (ATR); other names include fully-threaded rod, redi-rod, continuously-threaded rod ...

5. Mersenne's laws - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mersenne's_laws

   If the tension on a string is ten lbs., it must be increased to 40 lbs. for a pitch an octave higher. [1] A string, tied at A, is kept in tension by W, a suspended weight, and two bridges, B and the movable bridge C, while D is a freely moving wheel; all allowing one to demonstrate Mersenne's laws regarding tension and length [1]

6. Structural engineering theory - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Structural_engineering_theory

   Strength depends upon material properties. The strength of a material depends on its capacity to withstand axial stress, shear stress, bending, and torsion.The strength of a material is measured in force per unit area (newtons per square millimetre or N/mm², or the equivalent megapascals or MPa in the SI system and often pounds per square inch psi in the United States Customary Units system).
