MECHANICS OF SOLIDS
INTRODUCTION
The property of the body by virtue of which it
regain its original size and shape, when
applied force is removed, is called elasticity
and the deformation caused is known as
elastic deformation.
ELASTIC BEHAVIOUR OF
SOLIDS
Microscopic nature of the solid body taking a spring

2. Volumetric Strain: This strain is a change in
volume.

3. Shear strains: Strains along one axis change with
distance in the other axis
