Chapter 2 - Strain
Objectives
Course objective: To understand normal and shear strains and how they relate to deformation.
Learning objectives:
- Identify the Greek symbols associated with normal and shear strain.
- Draw (or recognize the correct) free-body diagrams of frames/machines.
- Draw deformation diagrams of frames/machines.
- Derive the compatibility relationship for coaxial (1.19), end-to-end or rotating rigid (0.99) components.
- Judge whether a modification of the basic compatibility relationship is necessary in order to deal with gaps in the structure (0.95, 0.71).
- Convert to consistent units of length (in., ft, mm, m) and strain (in./in., m/m, mm/mm, deg., rad).
- Calculate normal strains (1.06).
- Calculate shear strains using trigonometry (0.89).
- Judge whether to add or subtract when using multiple angles.
- Calculate thermal strains and deformations (1.06).
