Thermal Stress in Strength of Materials Formulas

The Thermal Stress is the strain or force within a material due to temperature variations, causing expansion or contraction, potentially leading to deformation or failure. And is denoted by σ_T. Thermal Stress is usually measured using the Pascal for Stress. Note that the value of Thermal Stress is always negative.
