  2. Anderson's theory of faulting - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anderson's_Theory_of_Faulting

    Types of faulting. Anderson's theory of faulting, devised by Ernest Masson Anderson in 1905, is a way of classifying geological faults by use of principal stress. [1] [2] A fault is a fracture in the surface of the Earth that occurs when rocks break under extreme stress. [3]

  3. Rankine theory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rankine_theory

    Rankine's theory (maximum-normal stress theory), developed in 1857 by William John Macquorn Rankine, [1] is a stress field solution that predicts active and passive earth pressure. It assumes that the soil is cohesionless, the wall is frictionless, the soil-wall interface is vertical, the failure surface on which the soil moves is planar , and ...

  4. Goodman relation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Goodman_relation

    Within the branch of materials science known as material failure theory, the Goodman relation (also called a Goodman diagram, a Goodman-Haigh diagram, a Haigh diagram or a Haigh-Soderberg diagram) is an equation used to quantify the interaction of mean and alternating stresses on the fatigue life of a material. [1]

  5. Metrical Stress Theory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Metrical_Stress_Theory

    Metrical Stress Theory: Principles and Case Studies is a 1995 book by Bruce Hayes in which the author discusses metrical stress theory based on in-depth analyses of stress patterns of a large number of languages.

  6. Tsai-Hill failure criterion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tsai-Hill_failure_criterion

    The Tsai-Hill criterion is based on an energy theory with interactions between stresses. Ply rupture appears when: [1] [2] () + + ()Where: is the allowable strength of the ply in the longitudinal direction (0° direction)

  7. Conservation of resources theory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Conservation_of_Resources...

    COR has been utilized when studying work/family stress, [10] [11] burnout, [12] and general stress. [13] In work/family stress, COR research has looked at how the distribution of one’s resources have affected their home life, with some articles finding that putting too much of one’s resources into one’s work may lead to family problems at ...

  8. Richard Lazarus - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Richard_Lazarus

    Transactional Model of Stress and Coping of Richard Lazarus Richard S. Lazarus (March 3, 1922 – November 24, 2002) was an American psychologist who began rising to prominence in the 1960s. A Review of General Psychology survey, published in 2002, ranked Lazarus as the 80th most cited psychologist of the 20th century. [ 1 ]

  9. Euler–Bernoulli beam theory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Euler–Bernoulli_beam_theory

    The stress due to shear force is maximum along the neutral axis of the beam (when the width of the beam, t, is constant along the cross section of the beam; otherwise an integral involving the first moment and the beam's width needs to be evaluated for the particular cross section), and the maximum tensile stress is at either the top or bottom ...
