ANGLE OF TWIST – the angle through which a
radial section of body deflects from its normal
position when the body is subjected to torque
Shearing stress, 𝛾, is defined by the formula ???
SURFACE – the maximum shearing stress and
strain happens in which part of the shaft
In statistically determinate system, ANGLE OF
TWIST summation is held equal to 0, to solve this
kind of problem
TRUE. In gears, the force applied to one is equal
to the force applied to the other but in opposite
directions
To be able to determine the movement of gears,
MOMENT value is equated
TORQUE is a twisting force acting on an object
causes that object to rotate
POLAR MOMENT, I, is a value intrinsic in solving
torsion problems
AXISYMMETRIC. The property of specific-shaped
shafts where the appearance remains the same
when it is viewed from a fixed position and
rotated about its axis through an arbitrary angle
TRUE. Ductile materials generally fail in shear, so
it breaks along a plane perpendicular to its
longitudinal axis. However, brittle materials are
weaker in tension than in shear, so it breaks
along the 45degree surface
HOOKE’S LAW is a principle in mechanics that
states that the force needed to extend or
compress a material by some distance is
proportional to that distance
NORMAL LOADING is when forces are applied
perpendicularly to the longitudinal axis of a
member
YIELD STRENGTH is the stress at which the object
starts to show signs of deformation
NECKING is the phenomenon where the object
where axial load is applied has shown of thinning
or reduction of sides
NORMAL STRESS is the corresponding stress of
axial loading
ULTIMATE STRENGTH is the stress
corresponding to the maximum load applied
UTM is the machine which is used to test the
tensile strength and comprehensive strength of
materials
SHEARING STRESS is the corresponding stress of
transverse loading
BREAKING STRENGTH is the stress
corresponding to rupture
Deformation is also expressed as PL/AE
Bolts, pins and rivets create stresses on the
surface of the members they connect, these are
called BEARING STRESS
FREE-BODY DIAGRAM is a graphical illustration
used to visualize the applied forces, movements,
and resulting reactions on a body in a steady

The stress-strain ratio is represented by the
letter G
Ratio of shear stress vs. shear strain is
represented by the letter e
Bulk modulus is represented as k
The ratio of lateral strain vs. axial strain is

TORSION is the twisting or wrenching of a body
by the exertion of forces tending to turn one end
or part about a longitudinal axis while the other
is held fast or turned in the opposite direction
PRESSURE is the force per unit area, or intensity
of the forces distributed over a given section

MALLEABILITY is a property of a metal to be able

to be shaped into thin films

NORMAL STRAIN is the deformation per unit

length

The unit Pascal which is used in measuring

stresses can be represented as 𝑵/𝒎𝟐

STRESS-STRAIN DIAGRAM is a diagrammatic

representation of the relationship in the amount
of deformation at distinct intervals of tensile of
compressive loading

BRITTLE is a property of non-metals where it is

hard but liable to break or shatter easily

AXIAL LOADING is when the forces acting in two-

force members are directed along the axis of the
rod

Percent elongation can be represented as

𝟏𝟎𝟎 𝒙 [(𝑳𝑶 − 𝑳𝒃 )/𝑳𝑶 ]

True strain is given as 𝒍𝒏 |𝑳/𝑳𝑶 |

CENTRIC LOADING is a type of loading when a

uniform distribution of stress is possible only if
the line of action of the concentrated loads
passes through the centroid

E describes tensile elasticity, or the tendency of

an object to deform along an axis when opposing
forces are applied along the axis; it is defined as
the ratio of tensile stress to tensile strain

ECCENTRIC LOADING is a type of loading when

the concentrated loads do not pass through the
centroid

PLASTIC DEFORMATION is a process in which

permanent deformation is caused by sufficient
load. It produces a permanent change in the
shape or size of a solid body without fracture,
resulting from the application of sustained stress
beyond its limit

NEUTRAL is a surface that is parallel to the upper
