    Stress
    Load on a specimen divided by the area through which it acts. As used with most mechanical tests, stress is based on original cross-sectional area without taking into account changes in area due to applied load. This sometimes is called conventional or engineering stress. True Stress is equal to the...

    stress
    The intensity of the internally distributed forces or components of forces that resist a change in the volume or shape of a material that is or has been subjected to external forces. Stress is expressed in force per unit area and is calculated on the basis of the original dimensions of the cross sec...

    Stress
    The product of the load on a body divided by the area subjected to load, originally expressed in foot-pounds per square inch. A body is in tension when the force tends to pull it apart. It is in compression when the force tends to squeeze the body together. The change in shape caused by tension or c...

    Stress
    The force per unit area on body that tends to cause it to deform. It is a measure of the internal forces in a body between particles of the material of which it consists as they resist separation, compression, or sliding.
