Question
The rectangular plate is deformed into the shape of a parallelogram shown by the dashed lines. Determine the average shear strain $\gamma_{x y}$ at corners $A$ and $B.$
Step 1
The shear strain is given by the formula $\gamma_{x y} = \frac{\Delta x}{h}$, where $\Delta x$ is the horizontal displacement and $h$ is the height of the rectangle. Show more…
