  2. Shear stress - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shear_stress

    The formula to calculate average shear stress τ or force per unit area is: [1] =, where F is the force applied and A is the cross-sectional area.. The area involved corresponds to the material face parallel to the applied force vector, i.e., with surface normal vector perpendicular to the force.

  3. Stress–strain curve - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stress–strain_curve

    The stress is proportional to the strain, that is, obeys the general Hooke's law, and the slope is Young's modulus. In this region, the material undergoes only elastic deformation. The end of the stage is the initiation point of plastic deformation. The stress component of this point is defined as yield strength (or upper yield point, UYP for short

  4. Shear and moment diagram - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shear_and_moment_diagram

    Shear and Bending moment diagram for a simply supported beam with a concentrated load at mid-span. Shear force and bending moment diagrams are analytical tools used in conjunction with structural analysis to help perform structural design by determining the value of shear forces and bending moments at a given point of a structural element such as a beam.

  5. Shear modulus - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shear_modulus

    The shear modulus is one of several quantities for measuring the stiffness of materials. All of them arise in the generalized Hooke's law: . Young's modulus E describes the material's strain response to uniaxial stress in the direction of this stress (like pulling on the ends of a wire or putting a weight on top of a column, with the wire getting longer and the column losing height),

  6. Conjugate beam method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Conjugate_beam_method

    Here the shear V compares with the slope θ, the moment M compares with the displacement v, and the external load w compares with the M/EI diagram. Below is a shear, moment, and deflection diagram. A M/EI diagram is a moment diagram divided by the beam's Young's modulus and moment of inertia.

  7. Mohr–Coulomb theory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mohr–Coulomb_theory

    where is the shear strength, is the normal stress, is the intercept of the failure envelope with the axis, and ⁡ is the slope of the failure envelope. The quantity c {\displaystyle c} is often called the cohesion and the angle ϕ {\displaystyle \phi } is called the angle of internal friction .

  8. Yield (engineering) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yield_(engineering)

    The governing formula for this mechanism is: Δ σ y = G b ρ {\displaystyle \Delta \sigma _{y}=Gb{\sqrt {\rho }}} where σ y {\displaystyle \sigma _{y}} is the yield stress, G is the shear elastic modulus, b is the magnitude of the Burgers vector , and ρ {\displaystyle \rho } is the dislocation density.

  9. Shear strength - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shear_strength

    In engineering, shear strength is the strength of a material or component against the type of yield or structural failure when the material or component fails in shear. A shear load is a force that tends to produce a sliding failure on a material along a plane that is parallel to the direction of the force.
