Volumetric strain = 3× _____________

Volumetric strain = 3× _____________ Correct Answer Linear strain

The volumetric strain is the algebraic sum of all the linear or axial strains that are €v = €xx + €yy + €zz The volumetric strain will be 3 times the linear strain in any of three axis and €v = 3e Where (e = linear strain).
