The ratio of change in volume to the original volume of a body when the body is subjected to a single force or a system of forces is called:
The ratio of change in volume to the original volume of a body when the body is subjected to a single force or a system of forces is called: Correct Answer <span style="">volumetric strain</span>
Concept:
Strain = change in dimension / original dimension
There are three types of strain
- Volumetric strain
- Longitudinal strain
- Shear strain
Important Points
I n the above figure
- When we take the strain in longitudinal direction i.e. (change in length / original length) then it is called the longitudinal strain
- When we take the strain in lateral direction i.e. (change in diameter / original diameter) then it is called lateral strain.
- Shear strain is the ratio of the change in deformation to its original length perpendicular to the axes of the member due to shear stress.
