Review of the concept of Stress

Concept of Stress tensor

• Cauchy stress and its components

• Magnitude of stress vector on a given plane and orientation

Principal stresses and Maximum shearing stresses

• Stress invariants

• Maximum shearing stresses

• Principal stresses, directions and 3-D Mohr's circles

Equations of Motion in terms of Cauchy stresses

• Statics and Dynamics equilbrium

• Force equilibrium

• Moment Equilbrium

• Boundary conditions

Large deformation problems

• Equations in terms of First and Second PK stresses

• Evaluation of components from Cauchy to the other two kinds of stresses

Other Field Equations

• Heat conduction

• First and Second law of  Thermodynamics
