2. Transformation of Plane-Strain
Review:
What is normal strain?
And what is shear strain?
• Normal strain in a rod under axial loading is defined as the deformation
per unit length of that rod.

3. • Shear strain is defined as the horizontal deformation (displacement) per
unit length of that rod.
• Normally due to the shear stress.
Transformation of Plane-Strain
4. Transformation of plane strain is very similar to the transformation of the
plane stress.
Transformation of Plane-Strain
• Plane strain occurs in a plate subjected
along its edges to a uniformly distributed
load and restrained from expanding or
contracting laterally by smooth, rigid, and
fixed supports
• The deformations of the material take
place in parallel planes and are the same in
each of those planes.

x, y, xy can be obtained by solving the above equation simultaneously.
• Normal strain on the surface of structure a structural
element can be measured using strain gages
• Strain gages indicate normal strain through changes in
resistance.
• Normal and shearing strains may be obtained from
normal strains in any three directions.
