The image above represents true stress. Two essential parameters, force (F) and Instantaneous Area (Ai), are needed to calculate true stress.
The formula for calculating true stress:
σT = F/Ai
Where;
σT = True Stress
F = Force
Ai = Instantaneous Area
Given an example;
Find the true stress when the force is 12 and the instantaneous area is 4.
This implies that;
F = Force = 12
Ai = Instantaneous Area = 4
σT = F/Ai
That is, σT = 12/4
σT = 3
Therefore, the true stress is 3 Pa.

Calculating the Force when the True Stress and the Instantaneous Area are Given
F = σT x Ai
Where;
F = Force
σT = True Stress
Ai = Instantaneous Area
Let’s solve an example;
Find the force when the true stress is 10 and the instantaneous area is 8.

Unlock solutions for every math, physics, engineering, and chemistry problem with step-by-step clarity. No internet required. Just knowledge at your fingertips, anytime, anywhere.
This implies that;
σT = True Stress = 10
Ai = Instantaneous Area = 8
F = σT x Ai
That is, F = 10 x 8
F = 80
Therefore, the force is 80.
Calculating the Instantaneous Area when the True Stress and Force are Given
Ai = F / σT
Where;
Ai = Instantaneous Area
σT = True Stress
F = Force
Let’s solve an example;
Find the instantaneous area when the true stress is 5 and the force is 20.
This implies that;
σT = True Stress = 5
F = Force = 20
That is, Ai = F / σT
Ai = 20 / 5
Ai = 4
Therefore, the instantaneous area is 4.
