Question
A rectangular block is 7 cm long in the x-direction, 5 cm in the y-direction, and 9 cm long in the z-direction. The block is subjected to a triaxial loading of three uniformly distributed forces as follows: 15 kN in the x-direction, 21 kN in the y-direction, and 18 kN in the z-direction. Calculate the strain in the direction x if Poisson’s ratio v = 0.30 and having a modulus of elasticity of E = 150 GPa.
