Stress, σ (MPa)
Tensile

Shear
Torsion
Engineering stress: σ = F / Ao
F is load applied perpendicular to speciment cross-
section; A0 is cross-sectional area (perpendicular to
the force) before application of the load.
Shear stress: τ = F / Ao
F is load applied parallel to the upper and lower faces
each of which has an area A0.
Shear Ao Torsion
Plastic deformation
Irreversible: when the stress
is removed, the material
does not return to its original
dimensions.
Strain
σ = Eε
E is Young's modulus or modulus of elasticity, has the
same units as σ, N/m2 or Pa

engineering strain
Plastic deformation:
¾ stress and strain are not proportional to each other
¾ the deformation is not reversible
¾ deformation occurs by breaking and re-arrangement of
atomic bonds (in crystalline materials primarily by
motion of dislocations, Chapter 7)
