  • Engineering strain :
 
  • Natural/Logarithmic/True strain:
 

Relation between engineering and true strain:

 
  • Green (Lagrangian) strain :
 
  • Almansi-Hamel (Eulerian) strain :
 

1-D stress measures

  • Engineering/Nominal stress:
 
  • Cauchy/True stress:
 

Relation between engineering and true stress (no volume change):

 

1-D stress-strain relations

edit
  • True stress - Green strain:
 
  • True stress - True strain:

Stiffness

edit

Stiffness = change in equilibrium equation due to change in position.

 

Now,

 

Therefore,

Then strains are:

 

Rotation should not lead to non-zero strains!
