Understanding Stresses and Analysis in Engineering
Stress is the internal resistance in a body when deformed, measured in Pascal (Pa) or Mega Pascal (MPa). Types of stress include shear, torsional, tensile, compressive, and bending stress. The relationship between stress and strain is crucial in material analysis, with materials categorized as ducti
