They describe how materials deform under stress.
It measures a material's stiffness.
It is the ratio of lateral strain to longitudinal strain.
It quantifies a material's response to shear stress.
It measures a material's response to uniform pressure.
Higher in covalent compounds, lower in plastics.
Lateral strains become compressive.
It is the change in length per original length.
It is the change in dimensions perpendicular to the load.
It is the ratio of change in volume to original volume.
Volumetric strain involves longitudinal and lateral strains.
Greater lateral contraction for a given longitudinal strain.
It states stress is proportional to strain within elastic limits.
Shear stress equals shear force divided by shearing area.
It is the ratio of direct stress to volumetric strain.
Length increases while lateral dimensions decrease.
