Static Equilibrium
| Term | Definition |
|---|---|
| static equilibrium | for a system to have this, both the total force and the total torque must be zero |
| tensile force | the force that stretches a material |
| Young's modulus E | tensile stress/tensile strain |
| shear force | acts parallel to a surface |
| shear modulus G | shear stress/shear strain |
| pressure P | force per unit area |
| bulk modulus B | - pressure/volume strain |
