Compressive Strain on Body Formula Elements

Variables
Compressive Strain
The Compressive Strain is a measure of deformation that occurs when a material is subjected to compressive forces, resulting in a decrease in its original volume.
Symbol: εcompressive
Measurement: NAUnit: Unitless
Note: Value can be positive or negative.
Decrease in Length
The Decrease in Length is the reduction in the original length of a material or object due to various types of stresses, such as compressive or tensile forces.
Symbol: ΔL
Measurement: LengthUnit: mm
Note: Value can be positive or negative.
Original Length
The Original Length is the initial length of a material or object before any external forces or stresses are applied to it, serving as a reference point.
Symbol: L0
Measurement: LengthUnit: mm
Note: Value should be greater than 0.
