Challenge Problems
Push your limits with challenges.
Question 1
Given a beam subjected to a uniform load, analyze how this load translates into traction vectors across multiple cross-sections. Calculate the stress tensor at specific intervals.
💡 Hint: Use beam theory and consider how different loads affect different sections.
Question 2
Evaluate a scenario in which a material is subjected to both tensile and compressive forces. Discuss how these forces yield positive and negative stress values, and describe the resulting trajectory of stress in the material continuum.
💡 Hint: Recall the definitions of tensile and compressive forces related to material behavior.
