Trivia

TRESCA (TEchnical Studies & Computer Applications) is the name of a French mechanical engineer: Henri Édouard Tresca. He was born in Duinkerke on the 12th of October 1814 and died in Paris on the 21st of June 1885. Henri Tresca also was professor at the Conservatoire National des Arts et Métiers in Paris. He discovered the 'Tresca criterion' or the 'criterion of maximal shear stress'. This criterion is still one of the main criteria used today, besides the 'von Mises criterion', specifying plastic deformation of a material. Tresca also invented the modified X-shape cross-section of the former 'standard metre' that was preserved in Sèvres nearby Paris. He is one of the 72 French people whose names are engraved on the Eiffel tower.
