Strain and its Transformation

October 23, 2014 Samir Nayfeh Leave a comment

We can’t get very far in the understaning of machines and structures without thinking about their deformation. For solids, we usually describe the deformation in terms of strain. For a fluid, we usually speak of strain rate.

Look at the document source to see how to strike out text, how to use different colors, and how to link to URLs with snapshot preview and how to link to URLs without snapshot preview.

There is a command which is ignored by pdflatex and which defines where to cut the post in the version displayed on the main page Continue reading Testing Latex2WP →
