Types of Stress
Stress is classified majorly into two types in the manner they are applied.
- Normal Stress
- Shear Stress
Difference Between Stress and Strain
Stress and Strain is an important concept in the field of Material Science and Metallurgy to get into insights about the strength of the material. When a material is put under pressure or has a load applied to it, it develops stress is developed. When a solid is put under stress, it has the ability to deform. This deformation is called Strain. The stress is the pressure per unit area of the material, and the resulting strain is the deformation that occurs as a result of this stress. Strain and stress are strongly intertwined because strain occurs solely as a result of stress.
