FAQ

What is the Compressive Circumferential Stress?
Compressive Circumferential Stress or hoop stress is a normal stress in the tangential (azimuth) direction. axial stress, a normal stress parallel to the axis of cylindrical symmetry. Compressive Circumferential Stress is usually measured using the Megapascal for Pressure. Note that the value of Compressive Circumferential Stress is always positive. Typically, the value of Compressive Circumferential Stress is greater than 0.
Can the Compressive Circumferential Stress be negative?
No, the Compressive Circumferential Stress, measured in Pressure cannot be negative.
What unit is used to measure Compressive Circumferential Stress?
Compressive Circumferential Stress is usually measured using the Megapascal[MPa] for Pressure. Pascal[MPa], Kilopascal[MPa], Bar[MPa] are the few other units in which Compressive Circumferential Stress can be measured.
