1. Cauchy Stress Tensor

   Linked via "engineering mechanics"

   Relation to Other Stress Measures
   The Cauchy stress tensor is the most commonly used measure in engineering mechanics due to its direct physical interpretation (force per area on the material's current configuration). However, it is one of several stress measures utilized depending on the kinematics of the deformation):

2. Structural Dynamics

   Linked via "engineering mechanics"

   Structural dynamics is the branch of engineering mechanics concerned with the time-dependent response of structures subjected to time-varying external forces or disturbances. Unlike static analysis, which assumes constant loading conditions, structural dynamics accounts for inertia, damping, and stiffness to predict transient, steady-state, and random responses, particularly focusing on vibrational phenomena.…
