Engineering strain Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Engineering strain = (Instantaneous length-Original Length)/Original Length
𝜀 = (l_i-L₀)/L₀
This formula uses 3 Variables

Variables Used

Engineering strain - Engineering strain is the ratio of change in length to its original length.
Instantaneous length - (Measured in Meter) - The instantaneous length is the length after application of load.
Original Length - (Measured in Meter) - The Original Length refers to the material refers to its initial size or dimension before any external forces are applied.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Instantaneous length: 2 Centimeter --> 0.02 Meter (Check conversion here)
Original Length: 5000 Millimeter --> 5 Meter (Check conversion here)

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

𝜀 = (l_i-L₀)/L₀ --> (0.02-5)/5

Evaluating ... ...

𝜀 = -0.996

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

-0.996 --> No Conversion Required

FINAL ANSWER

-0.996 <-- Engineering strain

Engineering strain

LaTeX Go Engineering strain = (Instantaneous length-Original Length)/Original Length

True strain

LaTeX Go True strain = ln(Instantaneous length/Original Length)

True stress

LaTeX Go True stress = Engineering stress*(1+Engineering strain)

Engineering stress

LaTeX Go Engineering stress = Load/Cross-sectional Area

Engineering strain Formula

LaTeX Go

Engineering strain = (Instantaneous length-Original Length)/Original Length
𝜀 = (l_i-L₀)/L₀

Engineering strain

Engineering strain is unitless and is generally expressed as percentage in which the strain value is multiplied by 100. Engineering strain is used practically along with engineering stress.
