Examples of stress in the following topics:
-
- Tensile strength is defined as a stress, measured as force per unit area, that a material can withstand before failing.
- Reinforcing schemes are generally designed to resist tensile stresses in particular regions of the concrete that might cause cracking and/or structural failure.
- Thermal compatibility, not causing unacceptable stresses in response to changing temperatures
- Durability in the concrete environment, irrespective of corrosion or sustained stress
- When the cement paste within the concrete hardens, this conforms to the surface details of the steel, permitting any stress to be transmitted efficiently between the different materials.
-
- The Renaissance stressed harmony and beauty and no one could create more beautiful works than the great three artists listed above.
- The Mannerist movement stresses different goals and this work of art by Pontormo demonstrates this new, and different style.
-
- It can span a large area by resolving forces into compressive stresses (pushing downward) and, in turn eliminating tensile stresses (pushing outward).
- The dotted line extending downward from the keystone (1) shows the strength of the arch directing compressive stresses (represented by the downward-pointing arrows outside the arch) safely to the ground.
- Meanwhile, tensile stress (represented by the horizontal and diagonal-facing arrows) is contained by the surrounding wall.
-
- An arch can span a large area by resolving forces into compressive stresses, eliminating tensile stresses in turn.
-
- Today the meaning has broadened even further to refer to architecture of any date or location that exhibits some of the qualities of the original movement such as: distortion, fragmentation, or the communication of violent or over-stressed emotion.
-
- Romanticism was also inspired by the German Sturm und Drang movement (Storm and Stress), which prized intuition and emotion over Enlightenment rationalism.
-
- Like Dadaism before it, the Surrealist movement stressed the unimportance of reason and planning and instead relied heavily upon chance and surprise as a tool to harness the creativity of the unconscious mind.
-
- While earlier Renaissance artists would stress the perspective of a work, or the technical aspects of a painting, High Renaissance artists were willing to sacrifice technical principles in order to create a more beautiful, harmonious whole.
-
- The national identity of Indonesia was stressed by painters through the use of a realistic, documentary style.
-
- Sphinx of Hatshepsut, the ancient Egyptian female pharaoh, with unusual rounded ears and ruff that stress the lioness features of the statue
