Stress Ratio Formula
The following formula is used to calculate the Stress Ratio.
STR = MINS / MAXS * 100
- Where STR is the Stress Ratio (%)
- MINS is the minimum stress (GPa)
- MAXS is the maximum stress (GPa)
How to Calculate Stress Ratio?
The following example problems outline how to calculate Stress Ratio.
Example Problem #1:
- First, determine the minimum stress (GPa).
- The minimum stress (GPa) is given as: 400.
- Next, determine the maximum stress (GPa).
- The maximum stress (GPa) is provided as: 850.
- Finally, calculate the Stress Ratio using the equation above:
STR = MINS / MAXS * 100
The values given above are inserted into the equation below and the solution is calculated:
STR = 400 / 850 * 100 = 47.058 (%)
Example Problem #2:
For this problem, the variables required are provided below:
minimum stress (GPa) = 600
maximum stress (GPa) = 1500
Test your knowledge using the equation and check your answer with the calculator above.
