Stress is the force applied per unit area, strain is the deformation caused by stress, torque is the rotational force, and horsepower is the unit of power.

• Stress is the force applied to an object per unit area, measured in units of pressure such as Pascals or pounds per square inch.

• Strain is the deformation caused by stress, measured as the change in length or shape of an object relative to its original size.

• Torque is ...read more

Manufacturing processes are methods used to create products from raw materials or components.

• Casting - pouring molten metal into a mold to create a solid object

• Machining - using tools to remove material from a workpiece to create a desired shape

• Forming - shaping a material by bending, stamping, or pressing

• Joining - combining two or more parts to create a finished product

• Additive manufacturing - building up layers of ma...read more
