2. Axial loading - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Axial_loading

   Axial loading is defined as applying a force on a structure directly along a given axis of said structure. [1] In the medical field, the term refers to the application of weight or force along the course of the long axis of the body. [2] The application of an axial load on the human spine can result in vertebral compression fractures. [3]

3. Objective stress rate - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Objective_stress_rate

   Recall that the spin tensor (the skew part of the velocity gradient) can be expressed as = ˙ + (˙ ˙) Thus for pure rigid body motion = ˙ = Alternatively, we can consider the case of proportional loading when the principal directions of strain remain constant. An example of this situation is the axial loading of a cylindrical bar.

4. P-delta effect - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/P-Delta_Effect

   P-delta is a moment found by multiplying the force due to the weight of the structure and applied axial load, P, by the first-order deflection, Δ or δ. NUMERICAL EXAMPLE OF P DELTA EFFECT ON A CALCULATOR You have a 1 meter tall rigid vertical rod that rotates on a hinge at the bottom of the rod. There is a 1 newton load on the top of the rod.

5. Strength of materials - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Strength_of_materials

   The methods employed to predict the response of a structure under loading and its susceptibility to various failure modes takes into account the properties of the materials such as its yield strength, ultimate strength, Young's modulus, and Poisson's ratio. In addition, the mechanical element's macroscopic properties (geometric properties) such ...

6. Stress–strain analysis - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stress–strain_analysis

   The stress (or load, or deflection) the structure is expected to experience are known as the working, the design or limit stress. The limit stress, for example, is chosen to be some fraction of the yield strength of the material from which the structure is made. The ratio of the ultimate strength of the material to the allowable stress is ...

7. Structural engineering theory - Wikipedia

   1.0 x Dead Load + 1.0 x Live Load. Different load cases would be used for different loading conditions. For example, in the case of design for fire a load case of 1.0 x Dead Load + 0.8 x Live Load may be used, as it is reasonable to assume everyone has left the building if there is a fire.

8. Free body diagram - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Free_body_diagram

   (It may be necessary to calculate the stress to which it is subjected, for example.) On the right, the red cylinder has become the free body. In figure 2, the interest has shifted to just the left half of the red cylinder and so now it is the free body on the right. The example illustrates the context sensitivity of the term "free body".

9. Triaxial shear test - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Triaxial_shear_test

   The rate of axial deformation is kept constant, i.e., strain is controlled. The test allows the sample and the pore pressures to fully consolidate (i.e., adjust) to the surrounding stresses. The test may take a long time to allow the sample to adjust, in particular low permeability samples need a long time to drain and adjust strain to stress ...
