Stress Concepts Flashcards
(36 cards)
The branch of Physics that considers the action of forces on bodies or fluids that are both at rest and in motion
Mechanics
Branch of Engineering that applies the principles of mechanics to any design
Engineering Mechanics
also known as Mechanics of Deformable bodies
Strength of Materials (STREMA)
the study of internal effect of external forces applied to the structural member
Strength of Materials
This force acts perpendicular to the area
Normal Force
It lies in the plane of the area and it develop when external loads tend to cause two segments of the body to slide over one another
Shear Force
this effect when the external loads tend to twist one segment of the body with respect to the axis perpendicular to the area
Torque or Torsional Moment
Cause by the external loads that tend to bend the body about an axis lying within the plane of the area
Bending Moment
Defined as the strength of a material per unit area
Simple Stress or Stress
Develops when a force is applied perpendicular to the cross-sectional area of the material
Normal Stress
Developed if the applied force is parallel to the resisting area
Shear Stress
It is the contact pressure between two bodies
Bearing Stress
Can either be Tensile Stress or Compressive Stress
Normal Stress
Compressive force will tend to ________ the member.
shorten
Tension Force will tend to ________ the member
Lengthen/Elongate
Also known as Tangential Stress
Shear/Shearing Stress
The ratio of the Ultimate Stress and Allowable Stress
Factor of Safety
The Force acting along the circumference will cause stress in the walls in a direction normal to the longitudinal axis of cylinder. This stress is called?
Hoop Stress
A uniform tensile stresses in all direction
Membrane Stresses
The extent to which it resist deformation in response to applied force
Stiffness
A measure of how resistant solid matter is to various kinds for permanent change when force is applies
Hardness
a solid’s ability to deform under tensile stress
Ductility
The ability of a material to absorb energy when impacted
Toughness
Property of a material in which a body returns to its original shape after remove of the load
Elasticity
