L = (U*(2*E*I)/(M^2))
This formula uses 5 Variables
Variables Used
Length of Member - (Measured in Meter) - Length of Member is the measurement or extent of member (beam or column) from end to end.
Strain Energy - (Measured in Joule) - Strain Energy is the energy adsorption of material due to strain under an applied load. It is also equal to the work done on a specimen by an external force.
Young's Modulus - (Measured in Pascal) - Young's Modulus is a mechanical property of linear elastic solid substances. It describes the relationship between longitudinal stress and longitudinal strain.
Area Moment of Inertia - (Measured in Meter⁴) - Area Moment of Inertia is a moment about the centroidal axis without considering mass.
Bending Moment - (Measured in Newton Meter) - The Bending Moment is the reaction induced in a structural element when an external force or moment is applied to the element, causing the element to bend.
STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit
Strain Energy: 136.08 Newton Meter --> 136.08 Joule (Check conversion ​here)
Young's Modulus: 20000 Megapascal --> 20000000000 Pascal (Check conversion ​here)
Area Moment of Inertia: 0.0016 Meter⁴ --> 0.0016 Meter⁴ No Conversion Required

What are the four basic forms of deformation of solid bodies?

Four basic forms of deformations or displacements of structures or solid bodies and these are:
TENSION, COMPRESSION, BENDING & TWISTING.

How does Shear Deformation take place?

Shearing forces cause shearing deformation. An element subject to shear does not change in length alone but undergoes a change in shape, this is how a shear deformation takes place.

How to Calculate Length over which Deformation takes place using Strain Energy?

Length over which Deformation takes place using Strain Energy calculator uses Length of Member = (Strain Energy*(2*Young's Modulus*Area Moment of Inertia)/(Bending Moment^2)) to calculate the Length of Member, The Length over which Deformation takes place using Strain Energy formula is defined as the length of the section of the specimen under bending whose original dimension gets distorted or changed after bending. Length of Member is denoted by L symbol.
