In the linear portion of the stress-strain diagram, the tress is proportional to strain and is given by $\sigma = E \varepsilon$ since $\sigma = P / A$ and $\varepsilon = \delta / L$, then $\dfrac{P}{A} = E \dfrac{\delta}{L}$ $\delta = \dfrac{PL}{AE} = \dfrac{\sigma L}{E}$ To use this formula, the load must be axial, the bar must have a uniform ...

the load will be proportional to displacement. σ = P/A δ = PL/AE 2. The geometry of the structure must not undergo significant change when the loads are applied, i.e., small displacement theory applies. Large displacements will significantly change and orientation of the loads. An example would be a cantilevered thin rod subjected to a force ...
Displacement diagrams are effectively plotting the displacement vectors of the joints as defined by the end of the bars. The displacement vector for the end of a bar is made up of two components: (1) an extension, of a magnitude defined by the bar force and the constitutive behavior of the bar which is parallel to the direction of the bar and (2) a
The expression for deformation and a given load \(\delta = PL/AE\) applies just as in tension, with negative values for \(\delta\) and \(P\) indicating compression.
We determine the constants of integration by evaluating our expression for displacement v(x) and/or our expression for the slope dv/dx at points where we are sure of their val-ues. One such boundary condition is that, at x=0 the displacement is zero, i.e., vx()= 0 x = 0 Another is that, at the support point B, the displacement must vanish, i.e.,

Calculation of the elastic response spectrum in terms of spectral acceleration and spectral displacement representing the seismic action in the horizontal or vertical direction. Applicable for the design of structures that remain in the elastic range, seismic isolation systems, and calculation of seismic displacements.
