A normal force
is applied to the ends of a bar. The bar, which is homogeneous and straight, has its cross section area denoted by
. The normal force
is in tension or in compression. The line of action of the force includes the centroid of the section. The bar is cut at a distance from one of its end and that part is eliminated. The eliminated part is then replaced by a uniformly distributed force (UDF)
, where
is the normal stress. The stress
is calculated with
For a bar in shear the shear stress is
where
is the shear force.
A stress ...
