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 physics, a fluid is a liquid, gas, or other material that may continuously move and deform (flow) under an applied shear stress, or external force. [1] They have zero shear modulus, or, in simpler terms, are substances which cannot resist any shear force applied to them.
The solution to the elastostatic problem now consists of finding the three stress functions which give a stress tensor which obeys the Beltrami-Michell compatibility equations. Substituting the expressions for the stress into the Beltrami-Michell equations yields the expression of the elastostatic problem in terms of the stress functions: [4]
Experimentally, stress relaxation is determined by step strain experiments, i.e. by applying a sudden one-time strain and measuring the build-up and subsequent relaxation of stress in the material (see figure), in either extensional or shear rheology. a) Applied step strain and b) induced stress as functions of time for a viscoelastic material.
The stress–energy tensor of a relativistic pressureless fluid can be written in the simple form T μ ν = ρ 0 U μ U ν . {\displaystyle T^{\mu \nu }=\rho _{0}U^{\mu }U^{\nu }.} Here, the world lines of the dust particles are the integral curves of the four-velocity U μ {\displaystyle U^{\mu }} and the matter density in dust's rest frame is ...
where Δ is the induced retardation, C is the stress-optic coefficient, t is the specimen thickness, λ is the vacuum wavelength, and σ 1 and σ 2 are the first and second principal stresses, respectively. The retardation changes the polarization of transmitted light.
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
