Difference between the plane stress and plane strain in fracture mechanics |
|
Answer» Stress is defined as force PER unit AREA. It has the same units as pressure, and in fact pressure is one SPECIAL variety of stress. ... For a 3D system, in PLANE stress condition, thestress in the z-direction is zero. Similarly, in plane straincondition, the strain in the z-direction is zero. |
