In the computation of engineering stress, the actual or instantaneous cross-sectional area is used.(a) True(b) FalseThe question was posed to me by my school teacher while I was bunking the class.This interesting question is from Relationship between Tensile and Shear Yield Stress in division Types of Die & Metal Forming Processes of Casting-Forming-Welding II

Answer» RIGHT option is (b) False

The best I can EXPLAIN: The original cross SECTIONAL area is USED in the computation of engineering stresses. But in computation of TRUE stresses, the instantaneous cross-sectional area is used. Because of the length and cross-sectional area both changes at every instant during loading of material. The instantaneous load divided by instantaneous cross-sectional area is called true stress.
