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 ...
In continuum mechanics, hydrostatic stress, also known as isotropic stress or volumetric stress, [1] is a component of stress which contains uniaxial stresses, but not shear stresses. [2] A specialized case of hydrostatic stress contains isotropic compressive stress, which changes only in volume, but not in shape. [ 1 ]
The nominal stress = is the transpose of the first Piola–Kirchhoff stress (PK1 stress, also called engineering stress) and is defined via = = = or = = = This stress is unsymmetric and is a two-point tensor like the deformation gradient.
Stress (biology), an organism's response to a stressor such as an environmental condition; Stress (mechanics), the internal forces that neighboring particles of a continuous material exert on each other; Oxidative stress, an imbalance of free radicals; Psychological stress, a feeling of strain and pressure Occupational stress, stress related to ...
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.
A solid is a material that can support a substantial amount of shearing force over a given time scale during a natural or industrial process or action. This is what distinguishes solids from fluids, because fluids also support normal forces which are those forces that are directed perpendicular to the material plane across from which they act and normal stress is the normal force per unit area ...
When an object is subjected to a force in a single direction (referred to as a uniaxial compression), the compressive stress is determined by dividing the applied force by the cross-sectional area of the object. [1] Consequently, compressive stress is expressed in units of force per unit area. Axial Stress
