Normal Stress Visualizer

50 kN
50 kN
Area (AA): 314.2 mm²
Calculated Stress (σ\sigma)
159.15 MPa
Adjust the force and the radius of the circular cross-section to see how they affect the normal stress. Notice that increasing the area (radius) decreases the stress, while increasing the force increases the stress.
