Stress Transformation

Question 1

What are the two general forms of stress in a object and whats the difference?

Answer 1

Normal stress σ
Shear stress τ
Shear stress acts along the face of the object and normal stress acts to a right angle of the face.

Question 2

What is a uniaxial tension?

Answer 2

σ and τ not equal to 0

Question 3

What is the equation for solving stress in uniaxial tension?

Answer 3

σ=σxx/2+(σxx/2)cos2θ

Question 4

What is the equation for solving strain in uniaxial tension?

Answer 4

τ=-σ/xx2sin2θ
