Stress is a measure of the distribution of internal forces that develop within a body to resist these applied loads. There are two main types of stress - normal stress, which acts perpendicular to a ...

Did you know that the typical stress-strain curve obtained from a uniaxial tensile test is just an approximation? It doesn't consider the fact that the dimensions of the test specimen change ...

To explain these features of strain-induced crystallization consistently with earlier theories, 13, 16, 17 the primitive mechanical model by James and Guth, 18 which assumes elastically effective ...
