How to Calculate and Solve for True Strain | Mechanical Properties
Last Updated on January 8, 2023
The image above represents true strain.
To compute for true strain, two essential parameters are needed and these parameters areĀ Final Length at Breakage (l1)Ā andĀ Initial Length before Breakage (l0).
The formula for calculating true strain:
ĪµTĀ = In(l1/l0)
Where:
ĪµTĀ = True Strain
l1Ā = Final Length at Breakage
l0Ā = Initial Length before Breakage
Given an example;
Find the true strain when the final length at breakage is 42 and the initial length before breakage is 8.
This implies that;
l1 = Final Length at Breakage = 42
l0 = Initial Length before Breakage = 8
ĪµTĀ = In(l1/l0)
ĪµTĀ = In(42/8)
ĪµT = In(5.25)
ĪµT = 1.658
Therefore, theĀ true strainĀ isĀ 1.658.
Nickzom Calculator āĀ The Calculator Encyclopedia is capable of calculating the true strain.
