  2. Cremona diagram - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cremona_diagram

    As the force in member 1 is towards the joint, the member is under compression, the force in member 4 is away from the joint so the member 4 is under tension. The length of the lines for members 1 and 4 in the diagram, multiplied with the chosen scale factor is the magnitude of the force in members 1 and 4.

  3. Compression (physics) - Wikipedia

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

    This is the only type of static compression that liquids and gases can bear. [3] It affects the volume of the material, as quantified by the bulk modulus and the volumetric strain. The inverse process of compression is called decompression, dilation, or expansion, in which the object enlarges or increases in volume.

  4. 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.

  5. Tensegrity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tensegrity

    Tensegrity, tensional integrity or floating compression is a structural principle based on a system of isolated components under compression inside a network of continuous tension, and arranged in such a way that the compressed members (usually bars or struts) do not touch each other while the prestressed tensioned members (usually cables or tendons) delineate the system spatially.

  6. Direct stiffness method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Direct_stiffness_method

    A truss element can only transmit forces in compression or tension. This means that in two dimensions, each node has two degrees of freedom (DOF): horizontal and vertical displacement. The resulting equation contains a four by four stiffness matrix.

  7. Strength of materials - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Strength_of_materials

    The strength of materials is determined using various methods of calculating the stresses and strains in structural members, such as beams, columns, and shafts. The methods employed to predict the response of a structure under loading and its susceptibility to various failure modes takes into account the properties of the materials such as its yield strength, ultimate strength, Young's modulus ...

  8. Compressive strength - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Compressive_strength

    In mechanics, compressive strength (or compression strength) is the capacity of a material or structure to withstand loads tending to reduce size (compression). It is opposed to tensile strength which withstands loads tending to elongate, resisting tension (being pulled apart).

  9. Solid mechanics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solid_mechanics

    A solid is a material that can support a substantial amount of shearing force over a given time scale during a natural or industrial process or action. This is what distinguishes solids from fluids, because fluids also support normal forces which are those forces that are directed perpendicular to the material plane across from which they act and normal stress is the normal force per unit area ...
