Define Longitudinal Strain And Lateral Strain?

1.	Define Longitudinal Strain And Lateral Strain?
Answer» LONGITUDINAL strain: longitudinal strain is DEFINED as the deformation of the body PER unit length in the direction of the applied LOAD. Longitudinal strain= dL/L Where L= length of the body. P= tensile force acting on the body dL= INCREASE in the length of the body in the direction of P Longitudinal strain: longitudinal strain is defined as the deformation of the body per unit length in the direction of the applied load. Longitudinal strain= dL/L Where L= length of the body. P= tensile force acting on the body dL= increase in the length of the body in the direction of P

Answer»

LONGITUDINAL strain: longitudinal strain is DEFINED as the deformation of the body PER unit length in the direction of the applied LOAD.

Longitudinal strain= dL/L

Where L= length of the body.

P= tensile force acting on the body

dL= INCREASE in the length of the body in the direction of P

P= tensile force acting on the body

dL= increase in the length of the body in the direction of P
