STRAIN- Normal stress on a body causes change in length or volume and tangential stress produces change in shape of the body. The ratio of change produced in the dimensions of a body by a system of forces or couples, in equilibrium, to its original dimensions is called strain.

Types of Strain

Strain is of three types depending upon the change produced in a body and the stress applied. The three types of strain are 

Longitudinal Strain 
Volume Strain and 
Shearing Strain

1. Longitudinal Strain : It is the ratio of the change in length of a body to the original length of the body. If LL is the original length of a wire or a rod and the final length of the wire or the rod is L+ΔLL+ΔL under the action of a normal stress, the change in length is ΔLΔL.

2. Volume Strain : It is the ratio of the change in volume of a body to its original volume. If VV is the original volume of a body and V+ΔVV+ΔV is the volume of the body under the action of a normal stress, the change in volume is ΔVΔV.

3. Shearing Strain : If is the angle through which a face originally perpendicular to the fixed face is turned. (or) It is the ratio of the displacement of a layer to its distance from the fixed layer.


I HOPE THIS ANSWER WILL SURELY HELP U A LOT:-)

STRAIN:-

The ratio of the change in dimension of the body to its original dimension is called strain.

Strain = Change in dimension/Original dimension

THE TYPE OF STRAIN:-

There are 3 types of strain, they are:-

→ Longitudinal strain

→ Volumetric strain

→ Shear strain

Longitudinal strain:- It is defined as the change in length per unit original length, when the body is deformed by external forces.

Volumetric strain:- It is defined as the change in volume per unit original volume when the body is deformed by external forces.

Shear strain:- It is defined as the ratio of displacement of a surface (s) on which stress is acting to the height (h) of the surface.
