now i am looking for the stress [tex]\sigma[/tex] for the aluminium and for the steel
i would want to say simply [tex]\sigma[/tex]=F/A but i need to somehow take into account the types of materials and their elasticity,
i think that hookes law could help me here but i don't know the strains
also how do i take the volume into account? the only equation i have for volume is [tex]\Delta[/tex]=[tex]\epsilon[/tex]x + [tex]\epsilon[/tex]y + [tex]\epsilon[/tex]z, but i doubt that's going to help
