Axial loading: stress, strain and held-cold rods
Introduzido| English | Significado |
|---|---|
| normal stress | The force component perpendicular to a section per unit area, with a uniform average equal to axial force divided by area. |
| strain/streɪn/ | The fractional change in a dimension, such as extension divided by original length. |
| Poisson's ratio | The negative ratio of transverse strain to axial strain under uniaxial loading in the elastic regime. |
Pull on it
- The running case is the bracket's tie rod: $d = 12\ \mathrm{mm}$ steel, $L = 1.5\ \mathrm{m}$, carrying $P = 25\ \mathrm{kN}$ tension. Normal stress 正应力 is $\sigma = P/A$ and strain 应变 is $\varepsilon = \delta/L$; Hooke's law $\sigma = E\varepsilon$ ties them with $E = 200\ \mathrm{GPa}$.
- With $A = 1.131 \times 10^{-4}\ \mathrm{m^2}$: $\sigma = \mathbf{221.0}$ MPa - safely under the $250\ \mathrm{MPa}$ yield - and the rod stretches $\delta = PL/AE = \mathbf{1.658}$ mm.

The squeeze beside the pull
- Poisson's ratio 泊松比 $\nu = 0.30$: pull axially and the sides cinch, $\varepsilon_{lat} = -\nu\varepsilon$. At $\varepsilon = 0.001105$ the lateral strain is $\mathbf{0.000332}$, so the 12 mm diameter thins by $\mathbf{3.98}\ \mu\mathrm{m}$ - small, but it is why press fits loosen under tension.

Poisson lateral strain is negative in tension.
Held cold
- Fit the same rod between rigid walls and cool it $40\ \mathrm{K}$ ($\alpha = 12 \times 10^{-6}/\mathrm{K}$): it cannot contract, so $\sigma_T = E\alpha\Delta T = \mathbf{96.0}$ MPa tension - a load with no external force anywhere. That is the signature of a statically indeterminate problem: the constraint, not the load, sets the stress.

Free expansion produces deformation only; constraint produces stress.
Three axial slips
- Nominal diameter where the thread root governs. The weakest area sizes the rod.
- Thermal strain without constraint. Free expansion produces no stress at all.
- Sign of the lateral strain. Tension thins; compression fattens.
Recap
- $\sigma = P/A = 221.0$ MPa; $\delta = PL/AE = 1.658$ mm; $\varepsilon = 0.001105$.
- $\varepsilon_{lat} = -0.30\,\varepsilon$ thins the rod by 3.98 µm.
- Held cold: $\sigma_T = E\alpha\Delta T = 96.0$ MPa with no force applied.
