Mechanical Stress for a Cylinder

The mechanical stress for a cylinder expresses the internal forces that neighboring particles within the cylinder exert on each other.

The mechanical stress for a cylinder equals the force applied divided by the product of \[Pi] and the square of the radius of the cylinder.

Formula

QuantityVariable["σ", "Stress"] == QuantityVariable["F", "Force"]/(Pi*QuantityVariable["R", "Radius"]^2)

symbol description physical quantity
σ mechanical stress "Stress"
F force "Force"
R radius "Radius"
