Stress and strain
DIRECT STRESS
? When a force is applied to an elastic body, the body deforms. The way in 
which the body deforms depends upon the type of force applied to it.
Compression force makes the body shorter.
A tensile force makes the body longer

DIRECT STRAIN , 
In each case, a force F produces a deformation x. In engineering, we 
usually change this force into stress and the deformation into strain 
and we define these as follows:
Strain is the deformation per unit of the original length.
The 
symbol
Strain has no unit’s since it is a ratio of length to length. Most 
engineering materials do not stretch very mush before they become 
damages, so strain values are very small figures. It is quite normal to 
change small numbers in to the exponent for 10
-6
( micro strain).
called EPSILON

MODULUS OF ELASTICITY (E)
•Elastic materials always spring back into shape when released. 
They also obey HOOKE’s LAW. 
•This is the law of spring which states that deformation is directly 
proportional to the force. F/x = stiffness = kN/m
•The stiffness is different for the different material and different sizes of the 
material. We may eliminate the size by using stress and strain instead of 
force and deformation:
