12:If the engineering strain in a tensile bar is 0.0025 and
Poisson’s ratio is 0.33, find the original length and the orig-
inal diameter if the length and diameter under load are
2.333 ft. and 1.005 in. respectively.
Given,
Engineering strain(εx )=0.0025
Poisson ratio (ν)=0.33
Current length(L)=2.333 in
Current diameter(d)=1.005 in
Here,
Engineering strain(εx ) = L−L

L0 = 2.327 in is the original length
Now, we know

is the original diameter of circular bar.
13: Find the true strain for the circumstances described in
the preceding problem
Original length (L0 ) = 2.327
Current length (L)=2.333
True longitudinal strain= Current−Original
Current = 2.333−2.327
2.333 = 0.002571 Original
(d0 )= π × 1.0058
Current (d)= π × 1.005
True transverse strain= Current−Original
Current = 1.005π−1.0058π
1.005π
True transverse strain=-.000796
