Duality (mechanical engineering)

In mechanical engineering, many terms are associated into pairs called duals. A dual of a relationship is formed by interchanging force (stress) and deformation (strain) in an expression.

Here is a partial list of mechanical dualities:

Examples

Constitutive relation

gollark: § Calculate the SHA256 digest of the program as a raw bytestring. Lossily convert it to UTF-8, discarding invalid parts. Interpret the resulting string as Turi source code like i.Æ Create a new VM/container/isolated execution environment. Run the rest of the program in this environment.
gollark: Turi now has § and Æ.
gollark: Like (ugh) Python.
gollark: Some languages lack block comments.
gollark: Hmm, maybe if an invalid command is detected, it should just pick the nearest one (by... Levenstein, however you spell that, distance of bytestrings representing each command? or maybe just the difference in codepoints) and run that.
