Product Information
In order to select an optimal structure among possible similar structures, one needs to compare the elastic behavior of the structures. A new criterion that describes elastic behavior is the rate of change of deformation. Using this criterion, the safe dimensions of a structure that are required by the stress distributed in a structure can be calculated. This text explores the non-linear theory of elasticity that allows one to determine the actual individual limit of elasticity/failure of a structure, using a simple non-destructive method of measurement of deformation on the model of a structure.Product Identifiers
