SUMMARY
Simple shear and rotational strain are distinct concepts in materials science. Simple shear refers to a stress applied parallel or tangential to a material's surface, while rotational strain involves the change in shape due to rotation. Shear stress is quantified in force per area, whereas strain is a dimensionless measure of deformation. The relationship between shear and material hardness indicates that harder materials exhibit less strain under the same shear conditions.
PREREQUISITES- Understanding of shear stress and its application in materials science
