How to Evaluate Strain in Element?

Strain in Element evaluator uses Strain = (Weight per unit volume*Length of Bar)/Young's Modulus Bar to evaluate the Strain, Strain in Element formula is defined as a measure of the deformation experienced by a material when subjected to stress, specifically due to its own weight. It quantifies how much a material elongates relative to its original length, providing insights into its mechanical properties and behavior under load. Strain is denoted by ε symbol.

How to evaluate Strain in Element using this online evaluator? To use this online evaluator for Strain in Element, enter Weight per unit volume (w), Length of Bar (Lbar) & Young's Modulus Bar (E) and hit the calculate button.
