When a square block of material is pushed into a parallelogram, the material is under what stress type?
- Twist.
- Creep.
- Shear.
Explanation from PART66Online
Pushing a square block sideways so it skews into a parallelogram slides one layer over another, which is the deformation produced by shear stress. Twist describes torsion and creep is slow deformation over time under sustained load, neither of which matches this distortion.
