Question
What is lateral stress?
Open in App
Solution
Lateral stress is the stress produced in the lateral direction.
The lateral direction is the direction perpendicular to the body's axial direction.
A lateral strain is usually formed as a result of the lateral stress, which influences the overall diameter or, generally, the area of the body.
