Axial Deformation Formula
The following two example problems outline the steps and information needed to calculate the Axial Deformation.
AD = ε * L
Variables:
- AD is the Axial Deformation (in)
- ε is the original axial length (in)
- L is the axial strain (in/in)
To calculate the axial deformation, multiply the original axial length by the axial strain.
How to Calculate Axial Deformation?
The following steps outline how to calculate the Axial Deformation.
- First, determine the original axial length (in).
- Next, determine the axial strain (in/in).
- Next, gather the formula from above = AD = ε * L.
- Finally, calculate the Axial Deformation.
- After inserting the variables and calculating the result, check your answer with the calculator above.
Example Problem :
Use the following variables as an example problem to test your knowledge.
original axial length (in) = .75
axial strain (in/in) = 3
AD = ε * L = ?
