Define stress in your own words.
Think about forces acting on surfaces.
What is strain?
Consider how materials change shape under force.
What do we call the relationship that joins stress and strain?
Think about how materials respond to applied forces.
True or False: Stress can be defined as force over area.
Recall the basic definition of stress.
Design a simple experiment to measure the stress-strain relationship in a material of your choice and outline the steps.
Consider the setup of forces and measurements you would need.
Given a material with a specific stress-strain relation defined by σ = Eϵ, find the stress produced if the strain is 0.01 and E (Young's modulus) is 200 GPa.
Don't forget to convert units appropriately.
