    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Greek_letters_used_in...

    t. e. Greek letters are used in mathematics, science, engineering, and other areas where mathematical notation is used as symbols for constants, special functions, and also conventionally for variables representing certain quantities. In these contexts, the capital letters and the small letters represent distinct and unrelated entities.

  3. Strain (mechanics) - Wikipedia

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

    The (infinitesimal) strain tensor (symbol ) is defined in the International System of Quantities (ISQ), more specifically in ISO 80000-4 (Mechanics), as a "tensor quantity representing the deformation of matter caused by stress. Strain tensor is symmetric and has three linear strain and three shear strain (Cartesian) components." [6]

  4. Δ-8-Tetrahydrocannabinol - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Δ-8-Tetrahydrocannabinol

    Δ-8-tetrahydrocannabinol (delta-8-THC, [a] Δ8-THC) is a psychoactive cannabinoid found in the Cannabis plant. [1] It is an isomer of delta-9-tetrahydrocannabinol (delta-9-THC, Δ 9 -THC), the compound commonly known as THC, with which it co-occurs in hemp; natural quantities of ∆ 8 -THC found in hemp are low.

  5. Deformation (engineering) - Wikipedia

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

    Deformation are changes in the relative position between internals points on the object, excluding rigid transformations, causing the body to change shape or size. Strain is the relativeinternal deformation, the dimensionless change in shape of an infinitesimal cube of material relative to a reference configuration.

  7. Deformation (physics) - Wikipedia

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

    In physics and continuum mechanics, deformation is the change in the shape or size of an object. It has dimension of length with SI unit of metre (m). It is quantified as the residual displacement of particles in a non-rigid body, from an initial configuration to a final configuration, excluding the body's average translation and rotation (its rigid transformation). [1]

  8. Poisson's ratio - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Poisson's_ratio

    Poisson's ratio of a material defines the ratio of transverse strain (x direction) to the axial strain (y direction)In materials science and solid mechanics, Poisson's ratio ν is a measure of the Poisson effect, the deformation (expansion or contraction) of a material in directions perpendicular to the specific direction of loading.

  9. Shear stress - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shear_stress

    Shear stress (often denoted by τ, Greek: tau) is the component of stress coplanar with a material cross section. It arises from the shear force, the component of force vector parallel to the material cross section. Normal stress, on the other hand, arises from the force vector component perpendicular to the material cross section on which it acts.
