Tube à gazLe tube à gaz est un type de tube électronique constitué d'électrodes entourées par un gaz, cet ensemble étant disposé à l'intérieur d'une enveloppe, étanche et résistante à la température. Bien que l'enveloppe soit généralement en verre, les tubes de puissance utilisent souvent de la céramique, et les versions militaires utilisent parfois du verre doublé par du métal. Le tube à gaz fonctionne grâce à l'ionisation du gaz, qui permet la conduction, entre les électrodes. Les cathodes utilisées peuvent être chaudes ou froides.
Cylinder stressIn mechanics, a cylinder stress is a stress distribution with rotational symmetry; that is, which remains unchanged if the stressed object is rotated about some fixed axis. Cylinder stress patterns include: circumferential stress, or hoop stress, a normal stress in the tangential (azimuth) direction. axial stress, a normal stress parallel to the axis of cylindrical symmetry. radial stress, a normal stress in directions coplanar with but perpendicular to the symmetry axis.
Viscous stress tensorThe viscous stress tensor is a tensor used in continuum mechanics to model the part of the stress at a point within some material that can be attributed to the strain rate, the rate at which it is deforming around that point. The viscous stress tensor is formally similar to the elastic stress tensor (Cauchy tensor) that describes internal forces in an elastic material due to its deformation. Both tensors map the normal vector of a surface element to the density and direction of the stress acting on that surface element.
Stress–strain analysisStress–strain analysis (or stress analysis) is an engineering discipline that uses many methods to determine the stresses and strains in materials and structures subjected to forces. In continuum mechanics, stress is a physical quantity that expresses the internal forces that neighboring particles of a continuous material exert on each other, while strain is the measure of the deformation of the material. In simple terms we can define stress as the force of resistance per unit area, offered by a body against deformation.
