Strain

Solid Mechanics

Solid mechanics is the branch of mechanics that studies the behavior of solid materials under the action of forces and displacements. It deals with how these materials deform and fail under various loading conditions. Key Characteristics / Core Concepts Stress: The force per unit area acting on a material (measured in Pascals). Strain: The deformation … Read more

Elasticity

Elasticity is the ability of an object or material to return to its original shape after being stretched, compressed, or deformed. It’s a measure of how much a material or object resists deformation under stress and then recovers its original shape once the stress is removed. Key Characteristics / Core Concepts Deformation: The change in … Read more
