Engineering stress Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary
Formula Used
Engineering stress = Load/Cross-sectional Area
σ = Wload/A0
This formula uses 3 Variables
Variables Used
Engineering stress - (Measured in Pascal) - Engineering stress is the ratio of force exerted and the initial area.
Load - (Measured in Newton) - Load is the instantaneous load applied perpendicular to the specimen cross section.
Cross-sectional Area - (Measured in Square Meter) - The Cross-sectional Area before any load is applied.
STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit
Load: 3.6 Kilonewton --> 3600 Newton (Check conversion here)
Cross-sectional Area: 5419 Square Millimeter --> 0.005419 Square Meter (Check conversion here)
STEP 2: Evaluate Formula
Substituting Input Values in Formula
σ = Wload/A0 --> 3600/0.005419
Evaluating ... ...
σ = 664329.21203174
STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit
664329.21203174 Pascal -->0.66432921203174 Megapascal (Check conversion here)

Engineering stress Formula

Engineering stress = Load/Cross-sectional Area
σ = Wload/A0

Engineering Stress

Engineering stress is commonly used in design of components and considers only the original area of cross section that is, before the application of load.

How to Calculate Engineering stress?

Engineering stress calculator uses Engineering stress = Load/Cross-sectional Area to calculate the Engineering stress, Engineering stress is the force acting perpendicular to the original area of cross section. Engineering stress is denoted by σ symbol.

How to calculate Engineering stress using this online calculator? To use this online calculator for Engineering stress, enter Load (Wload) & Cross-sectional Area (A0) and hit the calculate button. Here is how the Engineering stress calculation can be explained with given input values -> 3E-5 = 3600/0.005419.

FAQ
