SOLIDS: Strain is related to stress. For Hookean or linear elastic solids σ =E ε , where ε is strain E is Young’s modulus σ is stress (force/area). FLUIDS: Strain rate is related to shear stress. For Newtonian fluids τ = μ du/dy , where τ is shear stress, μ is viscosity

RECORD FUEL PRICES PLACE STRESS ON OCEAN SHIPPING May 2, 2008 Shipping lines worldwide are struggling as crude oil prices topped an unprecedented US$119 per barrel this week, in turn pushing marine bunker fuel prices up past $552 per ton – a $26 per ton increase since the end of March alone. Bunker prices have risen 87% since the beginning of 2007. Fuel costs represent as much as 50-60% of total ship operating costs, depending on the type of ship and service. . . . With the cost of bunker fuel at $552 per ton, with fuel consumption at 217 tons per day, and a 14 day voyage, a single round trip voyage for this one vessel would produce a fuel bill of $3,353,952.
