The problems for Sections 2.5-2.8 involve displacements, deformations, and strain states at a point in a structural or machine member. These quantities, as with then stress counterparts, are important in design and failure criteria.

A square panel in the side of a ship (Figure P2.55) is loaded so that the panel is in a state of plane strain (ϵzz = ϵzx = ϵzy = 0).

a. Determine the displacements for the panel given the deformations shown and the strain components for the (x, y) coordinate axes.

---

b. Determine the strain components for the (X, Y) axes.
