CHAPTER-1 (STRESSES AND STRAINS)

Load- Any external force on a body or workpiece is called Load.
S.I Unit - NEWTON (N)

Effect of load on a body- if we apply load on body, the shape and size of the body get changed.
 
CLASSIFICATION OF LOAD -  They are classified as follows.
( 1.)  According to effect produced on the body : 

a.) Tensile Load - The load whose effect is to  increase the length of the body is called tensile load.

b.) Cmpressive Load - The load whose effect is to decrease the length of the body.

c.) Shearing Load - The load whose effect is to cause sliding the one face of the body relative to the other. 

d.) Bending Load - The load whose effect is to cause a certain degree of curvature or bend in the body.

e.) Twisting Load - The effect produce by two forces which is applied at opposite end of the body so as to cause one end rotate about it's longitudinal axis relative to other.

( 2.)  According to the manner application of load on the body :

a.) Dead Load / Static Load - In this load , Magnitude, Direction and point of application of the load are fixed for a given member.

b.) Live Load / Fluctuating Load - In this load , Magnitude, Direction and point of application of the load are not fixed for a given member.

STRESS AND STRAIN - 

Stress- it is defined as the force acting per unit area of the cross- section of a body.

 it is denoted by f, P or σ ( Sigma ) .

                  σ = P/A ( mathematically)

Unit of stress :- N/m²,  N/ mm² = Pascal 

TYPES OF STRESS:- Mainly 2 types of stress
1.) Direct stress
2.) Shear stress 

1.) Direct Stress - The force is applied perpendicular to the cross section of the body then the stress induce in body is known as direct stress.
The direct stress either tensile or compressive.  

a.) Tensile Stress - when the axial pull is applied to the cross-section of a body then the stress induce is known as tensile stress.
( In a simple way tensile stress is the force whose effect tend to increase the length of the body)

                                 σ = P/A

b.) Compressive Stress -  when the axial push is applied on the cross- section of a body, then the stress induce is known as compressive Stress.
                                σ = P/A

2.) Shear Stress - when two equal and opposite forces are applied tengentially to the cross section of a body, then the stress induced is known as shear stress.

                               σ = P/A

STRAIN -  It may be defined as the ratio of change in dimension to its original dimension .

                       ε = change in dimension / original dimension

it is denoted by epsilon ε


TYPES OF STRAIN -  There  are 4 types 

1.) TENSILE STRAIN -  The ratio of increase in length to its original length. 

                                 ε = 




2.) Compressive Strain:  The ratio of decrease in length to it's original length of the body.



3. )Shear Strain: When a body is subjected to two equal and opposite parallel forces not in same line, it tends to shear off across the resisting section. 
                               OR
The ratio of angular deformation to original Length along the force is known as shear strain.


4. )Volumetric Strain: The ratio between the change in volume to its  original volume of a body is known as volumetric strain or bulk strain.
