moduli apply to different kinds of deformation. For instance‚ Young’s modulus applies to uniform extension‚ whereas the shear modulus applies to shearing.

For most metals or crystalline materials‚ the curve is linear for small deformations‚ and so the stress-strain relationship can adequately be described

Sasidhara Rao 2 Basic Principles As mentioned earlier the transformer is a static device working on the principle of Faraday’s law of induction. Faraday’s law states that a voltage appears across the terminals of an electric coil when the flux linkages associated with the same changes. This emf is proportional to the rate of change of flux linkages. Putting mathematically‚ e= dψ dt (1) Where‚ e is the induced
