Stress analysis and measurement is an integral part of the design and management of structures, and is used in a wide range of engineering areas.  \u003cp\u003eThere are two main types of stress analyses  the first is conceptual where the structure does not yet exist and the analyst has more freedom to define geometry, materials, loads etc  generally such analysis is undertaken using numerical methods such as the finite element method.The second is where the structure (or a prototype) exists, and so some parameters are known.Others though, such as wind loading or environmental conditions will not be completely known and yet may profoundly affect the structure.These problems are generally handled by an ad hoc combination of experimental and analytical methods.\u003c\/p\u003e
