In a stress-strain diagram as shown in the below figure, the curve A represents

For a beam, as shown in the below figure, the deflection at C is (where E = Young's modulus for the beam material, and I = Moment of inertia of the beam section. )

In case of eccentrically loaded struts __________ is preferred.

The strain energy stored in a body due to shear stress, is (where τ = Shear stress, C = Shear modulus, and V = Volume of the body)

A rectangular beam subjected to a bending moment is shown in the below figure. The upper layer of the beam will be in tension.
