The concept of stress is • Two components of force important • Calculate surface stress the same – normal (F ) and shear (F ).

Stresses can be analyzed using Traction Planes of differing Orientations plane geometries, Mohr circle • The force intensity or the force per • The concept of stress is further diagrams, tensors, and lots of unit area acting on a plane. complicated by the orientation of algebra.
