following two types: 1. Rigid body displacement • Translation • Rotation • Combination of these 2. Elastic deformation • Occurs due to a change in shape when acted up on by a load (strain) in the axial, bending or torsion (angle of twist) directions. Deformation versus strain (ε or γ): – Change in the relative position of two points within a body • Axial strain, ε (elongation (+) or contraction (-)) • Bending strain, ε (can be zero, positive or negative) • Torsional strain, γ (can be positive or negative) • Combination of the above Principle of superposition: is the small displacement assumption and linear behaviour of materials, which is valid whenevere the following conditions are satisfied: – The quantity (displacement or stress) to be determined is directly proportional to the loads that produce it (linear elasticity; be in the linear elastic range (Hooke‘s law) of the stress strain diagram). – The loading does not significantly change the size and shape of the member.

3.2 Normal Strain: The concept of normal strain is illustrated by considering the deformation of a prismatic bar as shown in Figure 3.2: (a) original bar; with original length, L. (b) loaded bar, the length increases an amount δ. Defining the normal strain ε, as the unit change in length. Strain in the axial direction is called normal strain; and is calculated as:
𝜀=
𝑐ℎ𝑎𝑛𝑔𝑒 𝑖𝑛 𝑙𝑒𝑛𝑔𝑡ℎ,𝛿 𝑜𝑟𝑖𝑔𝑖𝑛𝑎𝑙 𝑙𝑒𝑛𝑔𝑡ℎ,𝐿
,𝜀 =
𝛿 𝐿
… … … … … … … . (3.1)
Normal strain is positive(+) when there is elongation, otherwise (contraction) negative (-).
Example 3.1: Given: A stepped round bar as shown is subjected to a load P that produces axial deformation in each portion of the bar as shown in Figure 3.3.
Find: the strain in portions AB and BC and the total strain in the bar. Assumptions: the bar weight is neglected. SOLUTION: 0.0045 m = 0.009 0.5 m 0.0135 m = = 0.0087 1.5 m
εAB = εBC
Using the superposition principle: total Strain, 𝜀𝑡𝑜𝑡𝑎𝑙 = εAB + εBC = 0.009 + 0.0087 = 0.0177 On the otherhand, if we use the definition of strain (change in length / original length) as applied to the entire bar, 𝜀𝐴𝐶 =
(0.0045 m + 0.013 m) = 0.00875 (1.5 m + 0.5 m)
Why is this result different than the previous one? Which is correct? How do we explain this?

The total eleongation of the bar betoween joints A and C is 0.15 in. in segment (2), The normal strain is measured as 1,300 µin/in. Find: 1. The elongation of segment (2). 2. The normal strain in segment (1). Assumptions: The bar weight is neglected. SOLUTION:
3.3 Shear Strain:
The shearing or shear strain (γ) is the tangent of the total change in
angle occuring between two originally perpendicular lines (n and t) in a body during deformation as shown in Figure 3.5.
Shearing strain is positive (+) if the right angle between the reference
lines decrease, otherwise, the shearing strain is negative(-). 𝛾𝑛𝑡 =

3.4 Components of Strains:
For one-dimensional strain, the concidering deformation of a bar under axial loading as shown in Figure 3.2, is represented by the end points of the lines which experience displacement u and u+ Δu. Thus the normal strain at a point is: ∆𝑢 𝜕𝑢 = … … … … . (3.3) ∆𝑥→0 ∆𝑥 𝜕𝑥
𝜀𝑥 = lim
In the case of two-dimentional strain as shown in Figure 3.7, the normal and shear strains at a point are: 𝜀𝑥 =
𝜕𝑢 𝜕𝑥

𝜀𝑦 =
𝜕𝑣 𝜕𝑦

𝜕𝑢 𝜕𝑣 + … … (3.4) 𝜕𝑥 𝜕𝑦
Average Strains: the values of normal and shear strains are the same as the strain at a point. The average stains are,
𝜀𝑥 =
∆𝑢 ∆𝑥

𝜀𝑦 =

∆𝑢 ∆𝑥

resprctively, are the x- and y-directed displasmens of a point.

Subsequent to loading, the square has the dimentions shown by dashed lines in Figure 3.9. Find: The average values of strain components at A? Assumption: Deformation of the panel is uniform. SOLUTION:

3.5 Thermal Stress: Most engineering materials expand when heated and contract when cooled. The strain due to a temperature change of ΔT is called thermal strain and is obtained by: 𝜀𝑇 = 𝛼∆𝑇,
𝑎𝑛𝑑 𝛿𝑇 = 𝛼∆𝑇𝐿 … … … … . (3.6)

essentially independent.the total normal strain in a body acted on both temperature changes and applied load is given by : 𝜀𝑡𝑜𝑡𝑎𝑙 = 𝜀𝜎 + 𝜀𝑇 … … … … … (3.7)
Example 3.5: Given: At a temperature of 40°F, a 0.08-in. gap exists between the ends of the two bars shown in Fig. P2.18.

3.6 Mechanical Properties of Materials: Mechanical properties of engineering materials loaded in tension and compression are determined as per: 1. ASTM : American Society for Testing of Materials 2. JIS : Japanese Industrial Standards 3. CNS : Chinese National Standards,..... etc. Ductile materials can undergo large inelastic strains prior to fracture. For example, structural steel and many alloys of other metals, and nylon, are characterized by their ability to yield at normal temperatures. Percentage elongation is 5 or more. Brittle materials (for example, cast iron or concrete) exhibits little deformation before rupture and, as a result, fails suddenly without visible warning. Percentage elongation is less than around 5. A homogeneous solid displays identical properties throughout. For example, if a bar made of the same material is divided in to several small pieces (of any shape and size) and the density (weight or mass / volume) of each piece is determined to be same then the material is homegeneous.Exceptions? If the properties of a material are identical in all directions at a point, the material is said to be isotropic (Ex. mild steel). A nonisotropic, or anisotropic, material displays direction-dependent properties (Ex. Composite materials). An orthotropic material is a special case of anisotropic material in which the material properties differ in two mutually perpendicular directions (Ex. graphite, wood). By definition, an orthotropic material has at least 2 orthogonal
planes
of
symmetry,
where
material
properties are independent of direction within each plane. In contrast, a material without any planes of symmetry is fully anisotropic. A material with an infinite number of symmetry planes (i.e. every plane is a plane of symmetry) is isotropic.

Where Ao : original area, A: instantaneous area, and : is the engineering stress. Figure 3.21 illustrated the the stress-strain diagrams for a mild steel:
The curve, OABCF, represent the true stress-true strain relationship.
The curve, OABCDF, represent the engineering stress-engineering strain relationship.
The differences between the curves are magnified in the strain hardening rate. In particular, there is a large divergence within the necking region. Why?
Elastic vs. Plastic Behavior: • If the strain disappears when the stress is removed, the material is said to behave elastically. • The largest stress for which this occurs is called the elastic limit. When the strain does not return to zero after the stress is removed, the material is said to behave plastically.
3.7 Hooke’s Law:
Is the linear relationship between stress and strain for linear elastic homogeneous and isotropic materials
For Below the yield stress:
E , E Youngs Modulus or Modulus of Elasticity
The slope of -ε diagram beyond the yield stress is called tangent modulus,
2 4
Et : 𝐸𝑡 = 𝑑𝜎⁄𝑑𝜀. Wherease, the ratio of stress to strain at any point on the curve above the yield stress is called secant modulus, Es: 𝐸𝑠 = 𝜎⁄𝜀 , as shown in Figure 3.24. •
For the shear stress-strain diagrams, G ,G shear modulus of elasticity or modulus of rigidity .
• Strength is affected by alloying, heat treating, and manufacturing process but stiffness (Modulus of Elasticity) is not.
3.8 POISSON’S RATIO: • For a slender bar subjected to axial loading: • x

,& y z 0
• The elongation in the x-direction is accompanied by a contraction in the other directions. Assuming that the material is isotropic (no directional dependence), y z 0 • Poisson’s ratio is defined as,
y lateral strain z axial strain x x
• Typical values of for steel ranges from about 0.25 to 0.3, while for aluminum materials it is of the order of 0.33. Maximum value of for linear elastic materials is 0.5. VOLUME CHANGE – dilatation: for the axial loading condition represented in Figure 3.27, we have 𝜎𝑦 =
𝜎𝑧 = 0 , and 𝜎𝑥 is the axial stress. The transverse strains are releated to the axial strain as,

3.9 Generalized Hooke’s law:
For an element subjected to multi-axial loading, the normal strain
components resulting from the stress components may be determined from the principle of superposition. This requires: 1) strain is linearly related to stress 2) deformations are small •
