| | Talk:Stress-energy tensor - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
| | I was also going to move this article to Stress tensor (which I will still consider doing, after I have merged), but stress tensor is a redirect to Stress (physics) so i wonder if i should. | | | I think this article should link to a new article on conservation laws in general relativity, in which it should be stressed that the divergence law for the stress-energy tensor does not have quite the interpretation expected from flat spacetime. | | | I added some stuff, but there really ought to be a separate article on plain old stress tensors as opposed to relativistic stress-energy tensors, as I know this is a pretty important subject in engineering, and the relativity stuff is completely irrelevant in that context. |

| | Stress changes related to fault rupture affect specific areas of the fault zone in different ways, and if the physics of the fault is sufficiently well understood it should be possible to determine which areas have been subjected to stress reduction and which to stress increase following an earthquake. | | | While failure on one part of a fault plane will tend to reduce stress in the rocks surrounding the rupture zone, it is likely to increase the stress in some other part of the fault plane, or on other nearby fault planes. | | | The pattern of historical earthquakes and the present stress regime of the western part of the NAF have been examined in detail in a March 2000 paper by Hubert-Ferrari and others. |

| | Shear stress - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
| | In physics, shear stress is a stress state in which the shape of a material tends to change (usually by "sliding" forces -- torque by transversely-acting forces) without particular volume change. | | | Shear stress vectors are relevant to the motion of fluids upon surfaces, which result in the generation of shear stress. | | | Structural members in pure shear stress are the torsion bars and the driveshafts in automobiles. |

| | Stress |
| | To be exact, the stress at a point may be determined by taking the limit of the load being carried by a particular cross section, divided by that cross section, as the area of the cross section aproaches zero. | | | Stress (roughly the opposite of relaxation) is a medical term for a wide range of strong external stimuli, both physiological and psychological, which can cause a physiological response called the general adaptation syndrome, first recognised in 1956 by Hans Selye. | | | In general the stress may vary from point to point, but for simple cases, such as circular cylinders with pure axial loading, the stress is constant and equal to the cross-sectional area divided by the applied load. |

| | Stress analysis - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
| | Stress analysis is an engineering discipline that determines the stress (physics) in materials and structures subjected to static or dynamic forces or loads (see statics and dynamics). | | | Most often the term stress analysis is applied to mathematical or computational methods applied to structures that do not yet exist, such as a proposed aerodynamic structure, or to large structures such as a building, a machine, a reactor vessel or a piping system. | | | A stress analysis can also be made by actually applying the force(s) to an existing element or structure and then determining the resulting stress using sensors, but in this case the process would more properly be known as testing (destructive or non-destructive). |
