Question

Difference between circumferential and radial stress

Answer 1

Circumferential stress or hoop stress, a normal stress in the tangential (azimuth) direction; Axial stress, a normal stress parallel to the axis of cylindrical symmetry; Radial stress, a stress in directions coplanar with but perpendicular to the symmetry axis.
