Problem 4 The rectangular metal plate shown in Figure 5 is subjected to a deformation represented by the red dashed lines. (a) Calculate the normal strain along side \( A D \) and along the diagonal \( D B \) [1 mark] (b) Calculate the shear strain at \( A \) [1 mark]
Expert Answer
Let's first try to look at part-a: a.) We need to find normal strain along the side AD and the diagonal
