  2. Tape correction (surveying) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tape_correction_(surveying)

    According to the section of tension correction some tapes are calibrated for sag at standard tension. These tapes will require complex sag and tension corrections if used at non-standard tensions. The correction due to sag must be calculated separately for each unsupported stretch separately and is given by:

  3. Hogging and sagging - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hogging_and_sagging

    Hogging is the stress a ship's hull or keel experiences that causes the center or the keel to bend upward. Sagging is the stress a ship's hull or keel is placed under when a wave is the same length as the ship and the ship is in the trough of two waves.

  4. Roark's Formulas for Stress and Strain - Wikipedia

  6. Compressive strength - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Compressive_strength

    The material now split into micro columns will feel different frictional forces either due to inhomogeneity of interfaces on the free end or stress shielding. In the case of stress shielding, inhomogeneity in the materials can lead to different Young's modulus. This will in turn cause the stress to be disproportionately distributed, leading to ...

  7. 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.

  8. Sag resistance test - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sag_resistance_test

    Paint and other coatings that are on slanted or vertical surfaces tend to sag when first applied. The thickness of the coating as well as the composition and viscosity will affect the overall sagging and conversely the sag resistance. In order to find the sag resistance of a coating a simple test is used.

  9. Deflection (engineering) - Wikipedia

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

    Deflection (f) in engineering. In structural engineering, deflection is the degree to which a part of a long structural element (such as beam) is deformed laterally (in the direction transverse to its longitudinal axis) under a load.
