Syllabus Dot Point
stress and strain
– shear, compressive and tensile stress
– engineering and true stress
– yield stress, proof stress, toughness, Young’s modulus, Hooke’s law, engineering applications
– factor of safety
– stress/strain diagram
The dot points above will be covered using Rochford Quicktime Unit 2
This youtube clip outlines the difference between true and engineering stress.
Task - Draw a stress strain diagram to show the difference between true and engineering stress
Complete the stress strain questions from this powerpoint.
