Variables Used
Modulus of Rigidity - (Measured in Pascal) - Modulus of Rigidity is the measure of the rigidity of the body, given by the ratio of shear stress to shear strain. It is often denoted by G.
Shear Force - (Measured in Newton) - Shear Force is the force which causes shear deformation to occur in the shear plane.
Length of Member - (Measured in Meter) - Length of Member is the measurement or extent of member (beam or column) from end to end.
Area of Cross-Section - (Measured in Square Meter) - Area of Cross-section is a cross-sectional area which we obtain when the same object is cut into two pieces. The area of that particular cross-section is known as the cross-sectional area.
Strain Energy - (Measured in Joule) - Strain Energy is the energy adsorption of material due to strain under an applied load. It is also equal to the work done on a specimen by an external force.
