Strength

Analysis of internal forces in bodies

This procedure consists of finding out the effect of:

1. Axial loadings
2. Twisting
3. Bending
4. Combinations of axial, twisting and bending loadings.

Simple stress:

Definition:	Difference b/w stress and pressure Pressure is the external applied force acting per unit area, whereas, Stress is the internal reaction of the body to that applied pressure.
