The state of strain at a point is plane strain with εx = ε0, εy = –2ε0, γxy = 0, where ε0 is a positive constant. What is the normal strain along an axis oriented 45° from the positive x axis in the clockwise direction?

Answer:

The normal strain along an axis oriented 45° from the positive x axis in the clockwise direction is -ε₀/2

Explanation:

Given that

[tex]\epsilon_{x}=\epsilon_{o}\\\\\epsilon_{y}=-2\epsilon_{o}\\\\\gamma_{xy}=0\\\\\theta=-45^{o}\\\\\epsilon_{x_{1}}=?[/tex]

From equation of normal strain in x direction:

[tex]\epsilon_{x_{1}}=\epsilon_{x}cos^{2}\theta+\epsilon_{y}sin^{2}\theta+\gamma_{xy{ sin\theta cos\theta[/tex]

Substituting the values:

[tex]\epsilon_{x_{1}}=\epsilon_{o}cos^{2}(-45)-2\epsilon_{o}sin^{2}(-45)+0\\\\\epsilon_{x_{1}}=\frac{\epsilon_{o}}{2}-2\frac{\epsilon_{o}}{2}\\\\\epsilon_{x_{1}}=-\frac{\epsilon_{o}}{2}[/tex]
