This formula uses 5 Variables
Variables Used
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.
Area of Cross-Section - (Measured in Square Meter) - Area of Cross-section is a cross-sectional area which we obtain when the same object is cut into two pieces. The area of that particular cross-section is known as the cross-sectional area.
Modulus of Rigidity - (Measured in Pascal) - Modulus of Rigidity is the measure of the rigidity of the body, given by the ratio of shear stress to shear strain. It is often denoted by G.
Shear Deformation - Shear Deformation is deformation of specimen caused by shear force.
Length of Member - (Measured in Meter) - Length of Member is the measurement or extent of member (beam or column) from end to end.

What is the difference between Strain Energy and Resilience?

Strain energy is elastic , that is, the material tends to recover when the load is removed. Where Resilience is typically expressed as the modulus of resilience, which is the amount of strain energy the material can store per unit of volume without causing permanent deformation.

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.
