ocw.mit.eduthe stress-strain curve of the material is convex or linear, the rod deforms uniformly and a homogeneous state of strains and stresses are developed inside the rod. This means that local and average strains are the same and the strain can be de ned by considering the total lengths. The displacement at the xed end x= 0 of the rod is zero, u(x= 0 ...

www.mit.edulinear relationship between stress and strain (linear elastic). Linear elasticity is valid for the short time scale involved in the propagation of seismic waves. Based on Hooke’s law, the relationship between stress and strain is sij = cijklekl s = c e,(1.14) where constant cijkl is the elastic moduli, which describes the proper-ties of the ...
Stress, Strain, and Strain Gages
www.me.psu.eduStress, Strain, and Strain Gages, Page 2 Strain gage The principle discussed above, namely that a wire’s resistance increases with strain, is key to understanding how a strain gage works. The strain gage was invented by Ed Simmons at Caltech in 1936. A strain gage consists of a small diameter wire (actually an etched metal foil) that is attached to a backing material …

Stresses: Beams in Bending
ocw.mit.eduThe extensional strain of the longitudinal elements of the beam is the most important strain component in pure bending. The shear strain γ we have shown xy to be zero; right angles formed by the intersection of cross sectional planes with longitudinal elements remain right angles. This too is an important result.
