FAQ

What is the Compressive Stress?
Compressive Stress is the force that is responsible for the deformation of the material such that the volume of the material reduces. Compressive Stress is usually measured using the Megapascal for Pressure. Note that the value of Compressive Stress is always positive.
Can the Compressive Stress be negative?
No, the Compressive Stress, measured in Pressure cannot be negative.
What unit is used to measure Compressive Stress?
Compressive Stress is usually measured using the Megapascal[MPa] for Pressure. Pascal[MPa], Kilopascal[MPa], Bar[MPa] are the few other units in which Compressive Stress can be measured.
