Abstract:The measurement of strain is a fundamental necessity in many engineering disciplines and related industries. Methods of measurement can be roughly grouped into two major categories: those based on the behavior of light and those based on electronic devices. The present Chapter discusses strain within the framework of continuum mechanics. The study finds that strain is essentially a description of the deformations that have occurred at a point in a solid body. Many different factors have been noticed that may c… Show more
