Once the gap is closed, the axial strain can no longer increase; however, axial stress is produced. This is shown in the stress animation below. In this animation, the red vertical slider on the left ...

The diagram shows the location of atoms close to ... atoms in the undistorted lattice and this region of the core is in compression. The B-atoms are further apart than in the undistorted lattice and ...

The principal difference in the mechanical behavior of fluids compared to solids is that when a shear stress is applied to a fluid it experiences a continuing and permanent distortion. Fluids offer no ...

In Chapter 5, we discussed strain and the complexities of a material which could potentially have 21 independent elastic constants, and could be subjected to any stress state. Here, in considering the ...

Compression springs are the most recognizable spring and are intended to oppose ... When a spring is compressed for the first time and the stress is high enough, the spring may not return to its full ...

Stem and leaf diagrams make it easier to read lists of number Stem and leaf diagrams are formed by splitting the number into two parts, the ‘stem’ and the ‘leaf. For example: In the number ...

A compression technique that does not decompress digital data back to 100% of the original. Lossy methods can provide high degrees of compression and result in smaller compressed files ...

While we wouldn’t want to document a computer motherboard with ASCII schematics, it’s great for a quick-and-dirty circuit diagrams. Not exactly schematics, but [Duckman] has some Arduino ...

Polarization can damage our relationships and our health. We have strategies to reduce election stress, starting with ourselves.
