Burr, William H. (William Hubert), 1851-1934 · New York, J. Wiley & sons · leaf 25
normal to the plane of thepaper, all layers of the cube parallel to theplane of the shearing stress, i.e.^ BCy will slideover each other, so that the faces AB and DCwill take the positions AE and DE. Theamount of distortion or strain per unit of lengthwill be represented by the angle EAB = cp.… … Fig.l 5 = Gcp^ or, G = 9 (3) It will be seen hereafter that there are certain limits ofstress within which Eqs. (i), (2) and (3) are essentially true,but beyond which they do not hold ; this limit is called the limit of elasticity, and is not in general a well definedpoint. Art. 3.—Lateral Strains.…
