Calculate Engineering Stress





Formula

The formula to calculate Engineering Stress (σ) is:

\[ σ = \frac{W_{load}}{A_0} \]

Where:

Definition

Engineering stress is the ratio of force exerted and the initial area.

Load is the instantaneous load applied perpendicular to the specimen cross-section.

The Cross-sectional Area is the area before any load is applied.

How to calculate Engineering Stress

Let's assume the following values:

Using the formula:

\[ σ = \frac{W_{load}}{A_0} \]

Evaluating:

\[ σ = \frac{3600}{0.005419} \]

The Engineering Stress is 664329.21203174 Pa.
