Stress and Strain
Axial loading
MEE 320: Strength of Materials
Stress & Strain: Axial Loading
Suitability of a structure or machine may depend on the deformations in the
structure as well as the stresses induced under loading. Statics analyses
alone are not sufficient.
Considering
structures
as
deformable allows determination
of member forces and reactions
which are statically indeterminate.
Determination
of
the
stress
distribution within a member also
requires
consideration
of
deformations in the member.
This part is concerned with deformation of a structural member under
axial loading. Later, we will deal with torsional and pure bending loads.

Ductile materials: characterized by their ability to deform plastically
before rupture. Ex: steel, aluminum, copper
σY : yield strength, stress at which yield is initiated,
elastic plastic transition
σU : ultimate strength, correspond to the maximum
load applied to the specimen

Hooke’s Law: Modulus of Elasticity
E
Strength is affected by alloying, heat
treating, and manufacturing processes but
stiffness (Modulus of Elasticity) is not.
Stress-strain diagrams for iron
and different grades of steel.
10
Modulus of Elasticity or Young’s Modulus
is defined below the yield stress as the slop
of the engineering stress strain line.
E : Modulus of Elasticity
MEE 320: Strength of Materials
Elastic vs. Plastic
If the strain disappears when the stress
is removed, the material is said to
behave elastically.
When the strain does not return to zero
after the stress is removed, the material
is said to behave plastically.
The largest stress for which this occurs
is called the elastic limit.
11
If the member is loaded again after
being loaded and unloaded, the new
loading curve will closely follow the
earlier unloading curve.
MEE 320: Strength of Materials
Fatigue
When the stress is reduced below the
endurance limit, fatigue failures do not
occur for any number of cycles.
A member may fail due to fatigue at stress
levels significantly below the ultimate
strength if subjected to many loading
cycles.
12
Fatigue is the progressive and localized structural damage that occurs when
a material is subjected to cyclic loading in the elastic range of the material.
The fatigue properties are usually shown in a Stress versus Life (number of
cycles to failure) diagram or S-N diagram.

Saint-Venant’s Principle
We assumed so far that in an axially loaded
member, the normal stresses are uniformly
distributed in any section perpendicular to the
axis of the member.
Loads transmitted through rigid plates result in
uniform distribution of stress and strain.
If the loads are concentrated, the elements in the
immediate vicinity of the points of application of the
loads are subjected to very large stresses, while
other elements near the ends of the member are
unaffected by the loading
40
MEE 320: Strength of Materials
Saint-Venant’s Principle
Saint-Venant’s Principle:
Stress distribution may be assumed independent of the mode of load
application except in the immediate vicinity of load application points.
(Starting at a distance equal to the width of the element from either end)
Stress and strain distributions become uniform at a
relatively short distance from the load application points.
