  2. Plane stress - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plane_stress

    Figure 7.1 Plane stress state in a continuum. In continuum mechanics, a material is said to be under plane stress if the stress vector is zero across a particular plane. When that situation occurs over an entire element of a structure, as is often the case for thin plates, the stress analysis is considerably simplified, as the stress state can be represented by a tensor of dimension 2 ...

  3. Mohr's circle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mohr's_circle

    This way, the shear stress acting on plane B is negative and the shear stress acting on plane A is positive. The diameter of the circle is the line joining point A and B. The centre of the circle is the intersection of this line with the -axis. Knowing both the location of the centre and length of the diameter, we are able to plot the Mohr ...

  4. Contact mechanics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Contact_mechanics

    It gives the contact stress as a function of the normal contact force, the radii of curvature of both bodies and the modulus of elasticity of both bodies. Hertzian contact stress forms the foundation for the equations for load bearing capabilities and fatigue life in bearings, gears, and any other bodies where two surfaces are in contact.

  5. Stress (mechanics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stress_(mechanics)

    This type of stress may be called (simple) normal stress or uniaxial stress; specifically, (uniaxial, simple, etc.) tensile stress. [13] If the load is compression on the bar, rather than stretching it, the analysis is the same except that the force F and the stress σ {\displaystyle \sigma } change sign, and the stress is called compressive ...

  6. Tensor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tensor

    A more complex example is the Cauchy stress tensor T, which takes a directional unit vector v as input and maps it to the stress vector T (v), which is the force (per unit area) exerted by material on the negative side of the plane orthogonal to v against the material on the positive side of the plane, thus expressing a relationship between ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lamé's_stress_ellipsoid

    In other words, the endpoints of all stress vectors at a given point in the continuum body lie on the stress ellipsoid surface, i.e., the radius-vector from the center of the ellipsoid, located at the material point in consideration, to a point on the surface of the ellipsoid is equal to the stress vector on some plane passing through the point.
