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 ...

Apply a free-body analysis to the bar BDE to find the forces exerted by links AB and DC. Evaluate the deformation of links AB and DC or the displacements of B and D. Work out the geometry to find the deflection at E given the deflections at B and D. Example 5 (cont’d) SOLUTION: Free body: Bar BDE. ∑ MB = 0.

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
(a) Determine the deflection of a coil spring under the influence of an axial force \(F\), including the contribution of bending, direct shear, and torsional shear effects. Using \(r = 1\ mm\) and \(R = 10\ mm\), compute the relative magnitudes of the three contributions.
Tensile and compressive stresses are called direct stresses and act normal to the cross-sectional surface. Since stress is directly proportional to force divided by area, and strain (a dimensionless quantity) is related to deflection as. x , ε 1⁄4 L. (1.3) we can now rewrite Hooke’s law as. ε, 1⁄4.
