Formulas and Key Relations
2. Stress, Strain, and Sign Convention
Magnitude of the stress = F/A
Longitudinal strain = ΔL/L
Shearing strain = Δx/L = tan θ
Volume strain = ΔV/V
3. Hooke's Law and Stress-Strain Curve
stress = k × strain
4. Elastic Moduli
Y = σ/ε = (F/A)/(ΔL/L) = (F × L)/(A × ΔL)
G = (F/A)/(Δx/L) = (F × L)/(A × Δx)
G = (F/A)/θ = F/(A × θ)
σs = G × θ
B = -p/(ΔV/V)
Key relations
Longitudinal strain = ΔL/L, shearing strain = Δx/L = tan θ, and volume strain = ΔV/V.
