  2. Crack growth equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crack_growth_equation

    The crack growth rate behaviour with respect to the alternating stress intensity can be explained in different regimes (see, figure 1) as follows Regime A: At low growth rates, variations in microstructure, mean stress (or load ratio), and environment have significant effects on the crack propagation rates. It is observed at low load ratios ...

  3. Stress–strength analysis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stress–strength_analysis

    Probability density of stress S (red, top) and resistance R (blue, top), and of equality (m = R - S = 0, black, bottom). Distribution of stress S and strength R: all the (R, S) situations have a probability density (grey level surface). The area where the margin m = R - S is positive is the set of situation where the system is reliable (R > S).

  5. Energy release rate (fracture mechanics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Energy_release_rate...

    In fracture mechanics, the energy release rate, , is the rate at which energy is transformed as a material undergoes fracture.Mathematically, the energy release rate is expressed as the decrease in total potential energy per increase in fracture surface area, [1] [2] and is thus expressed in terms of energy per unit area.

  6. Stress–strain analysis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stress–strain_analysis

    Stress–strain analysis (or stress analysis) is an engineering discipline that uses many methods to determine the stresses and strains in materials and structures subjected to forces. In continuum mechanics , stress is a physical quantity that expresses the internal forces that neighboring particles of a continuous material exert on each other ...

  7. Stress relaxation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stress_relaxation

    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.

  8. Alternative stress measures - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alternative_stress_measures

    In continuum mechanics, the most commonly used measure of stress is the Cauchy stress tensor, often called simply the stress tensor or "true stress". However, several alternative measures of stress can be defined: [1] [2] [3] The Kirchhoff stress (). The nominal stress ().

  9. Calculator input methods - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Calculator_input_methods

    On a single-step or immediate-execution calculator, the user presses a key for each operation, calculating all the intermediate results, before the final value is shown. [1] [2] [3] On an expression or formula calculator, one types in an expression and then presses a key, such as "=" or "Enter", to evaluate the expression.
