  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. Cauchy stress tensor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cauchy_stress_tensor

    The maximum shear stress or maximum principal shear stress is equal to one-half the difference between the largest and smallest principal stresses, and acts on the plane that bisects the angle between the directions of the largest and smallest principal stresses, i.e. the plane of the maximum shear stress is oriented from the principal stress ...

  4. Viscometer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Viscometer

    The movement of the sensor is then influenced by the external forces (the shear stress) of the fluid, which affects the electrical response of the sensor. [3] The calibration procedure as a pre-condition of viscosity determination by means of a quartz crystal goes back to B. Bode, who facilitated the detailed analysis of the electrical and ...

  5. Rheometer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rheometer

    The stress acting in the sample is determined directly from the torque generated in the motor, which is required to deform the sample. Deflection angle/strain and shear rate are determined by the use of an optical encoder. Single-motor rheometers allow characterization of samples in either strain/shear rate or shear stress-controlled tests

  6. Viscous stress tensor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Viscous_stress_tensor

    Thus the zero-trace part ε s of ε is the familiar viscous shear stress that is associated to progressive shearing deformation. It is the viscous stress that occurs in fluid moving through a tube with uniform cross-section (a Poiseuille flow ) or between two parallel moving plates (a Couette flow ), and resists those motions.

  7. Contact mechanics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Contact_mechanics

    Contact mechanics is the study of the deformation of solids that touch each other at one or more points. [1] [2] A central distinction in contact mechanics is between stresses acting perpendicular to the contacting bodies' surfaces (known as normal stress) and frictional stresses acting tangentially between the surfaces (shear stress).

  8. Critical resolved shear stress - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Critical_resolved_shear_stress

    The Schmid Factor for an axial applied stress in the [] direction, along the primary slip plane of (), with the critical applied shear stress acting in the [] direction can be calculated by quickly determining if any of the dot product between the axial applied stress and slip plane, or dot product of axial applied stress and shear stress ...

  9. Impulse excitation technique - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Impulse_excitation_technique

    In this expression, ε 1 and ε 2 are normal strains in the 1- and 2-direction and Υ 12 is the shear strain. σ 1 and σ 2 are the normal stresses and τ 12 is the shear stress. The orientation of the axes 1 and 2 in the above figure is arbitrary. This means that the values for E, G and v are the same in any material direction.
