Shear Modulus<br />
A shearing stress alters only the shape of the body,<br />
leaving the volume unchanged. For example,<br />
consider equal and opposite shearing forces F<br />
acting on the cube below:<br />
A<br />
d<br />
F<br />
F<br />

The shearing force F produces a shearing<br />
angle The angle is the strain and the<br />
stress is given by F/A as before.
