Engineering Strain

Strain is a measure of deformation representing the displacement between particles in the body relative to a reference length.

Engineering strain equals the difference between the final and original lengths divided by the original length.

Formula

QuantityVariable["ε", "Unitless"] == (QuantityVariable["l", "Length"] - QuantityVariable["L", "Length"])/QuantityVariable["L", "Length"]

symbol description physical quantity
ε engineering strain "Unitless"
l final length "Length"
L original length "Length"
