2.1.2. Compressive Stress

If the bar is subjected to axial compression instead of axial tension, the stress developed at x-x is specifically called compressive stress pc.

pc =R/A

= P/A.

Under compressive stress the bar suffers shortening.

What is the relationship between compression stress and strain in materials under load?

Compression stress is the force applied to a material that causes it to compress, while strain is the resulting deformation or change in shape of the material. The relationship between compression stress and strain in materials under load is typically linear, meaning that as the stress increases, the strain also increases proportionally. This relationship is described by the material's compression modulus, which is a measure of its stiffness under compression.
