ME 213 - (Spring, 2024) - Chapter # 2

Here are the solutions to the selected problems from Chapter 2: Problem 2-4: Determine the normal and shear strains in a rectangular plate that is stretched so that its new dimensions are 250.5 mm x 249.5 mm x 249 mm. The original dimensions were 250 mm x 250 mm x 250 mm. Problem 2-13: A rectangular bar 100 mm long and 10 mm wide originally is subjected to a shear stress that causes its free end to move 2 mm parallel to its length. Determine the shear strain in the bar. Problem 2-20: Determine the normal and shear strains in a rectangular plate with original dimensions of 100 mm x 200 mm x 300 mm that is deformed into a parallelepiped with

strain
✓ Apply the concept to determine the strains for
various types of problems

Deformation
 When a force is applied to a body, it
will change the body’s shape and size.
 These changes are called
deformations.
Note the before and after positions of 3
line segments where the material is
subjected to tension.

Normal Strain
 The elongation/contraction of a line
segment per unit of length is referred
to as normal strain.
 Average normal strain is defined as
s'−s l f − lo l f lo l f
 avg = = = − = −1
s lo lo lo lo

 If the normal strain is known, then the


s'  (1 +  )s  l f = (1 +  )lo

Strain
Units
 Normal strain is a dimensionless
quantity since it is a ratio of two
lengths.

Shear Strain
 Change in angle between 2 line
segments that were perpendicular to
one another refers to shear strain.

EXAMPLE 2.3
Due to a loading, the plate is deformed into the dashed shape
shown in Fig. 2–6a. Determine (a) the average normal strain
along the side AB, and (b) the average shear strain in the plate
at A relative to the x and y axes.

EXAMPLE 2.3 (cont)
Solutions
Part (a)
• Line AB, coincident with the y axis, becomes line after deformation, thus
the length of this line is

AB ' = (250 − 2)2 + 32 = 248 .018 mm

• The average normal strain for AB is therefore

( AB )avg = AB'− AB = 248.018 − 250 = −7.93(10−3 ) mm/mm (Ans)


AB 250

• The negative sign indicates the strain causes a contraction of AB.

EXAMPLE 2.3 (cont)
Solutions
Part (b)
• As noted, the once 90° angle BAC between the sides of the plate,
referenced from the x, y axes, changes to θ’ due to the displacement of
B to B’.

Since  xy = −  ' then  xy is the angle shown in the figure.
