What is Understanding Normal and Shear Strain about?

In this chapter, normal and shear strain will be defined and methods for determining strain in various problems will be discussed. Strain refers to changes in the shape and size of a body due to applied forces or temperature changes. Deformation may be large, as in a stretched rubber band, or small, as when people walk in a building. Strain is analyzed at small line segments near a point to provide a more uniform analysis, though strain depends on the orientation of the line segment.
