    The document discusses the strain tensor, which describes strain - a deformation of an object due to applied stress. The strain tensor is a second-order tensor that can be represented as a matrix of 9 values, indicating a body's state of strain through elongation and shear. Tensors are multi-dimensional arrays that can describe physical properties. The strain tensor is used to estimate tissue deformation from tumors and measure co-seismic strain from earthquakes.

    STRAIN
    Strain is a deformation of an object due to applied
    stress. The complete description of strain at a point is
    describes by a matrix of 9 values. Strain refers to
    •change
      in length per unit length (ΔL/L) or to the
    change in angle due to applied stress.
    WHAT IS A TENSOR?
    A tensor is a multi-dimensional array of numerical values that can be
    used to describe the physical state or properties of a material.
    EXAMPLE:
    1-D tensor is a vector, 2-D tensor is a matrix and 3-D tensor is a cube. We can
    image 4-D tensor as a vector of cubes , 5-D tensor as a matrix of cubes and
    similarly 6-D tensor as a cube of cubes.
    STRAIN TENSOR

    The strain tensor indicates a body's state of strain and thus


    •its  elongation () and shear (). All components are combined
    in a Matrix and form the strain tensor .
    STRAIN TENSOR

    The elongation indicates the change in length in relation to a body's


    total length. Its index corresponds to the axis of elongation.
    A rectangular parallelepiped's shear under a Force F takes the form
    •of  a relative displacement Δx of the sides. The rectangular
    parallelepiped's edges are displaced at an angle Ѳ. The plane in
    which the edge has been displaced is indicated in the index of the
    relevant shear component.
    2-D NOTATION
    Strain, like stress, is a tensor. And like stress, strain is a tensor simply because
    it obeys the standard coordinate transformation principles of tensors. It can be
    written in any of several different forms as follows. They are all identical.

    •   since xy= yx, all the tensors can also be written as


    But

    Setting has the effect of making (requiring in fact) the strain tensors
    symmetric.
    3-D NOTATION

    All of the above conventions in 2-D also apply to the 3-D case. Notation for the
    3-D case is as follows.

    •But  rotational equilibrium requires that and This also produces symmetric
    tensors.

    VALENCE ,ORDER AND FIELD
    VALENCE :
    The valence of strain tensor is that is it is a covariant tensor.

    ORDER :
    • 
    Strain tensor is a 2nd order tensor.

    FIELD:
    The field of Strain tensor is Continuum mechanics
    USES OF STRAIN TENSOR

    • To estimate Thoracic Tumors:


    The tensorial framework allows for direct measurements of tissue deformation.
    It goes beyond the evaluation of deformation via comparison of shapes. It is an
    independent and objective determination of tissue properties. This methodology
    can be used to determine possible changes in lung properties due to radiation
    therapy and possible toxicities.
    USES OF STRAIN TENSOR

    • Estimation by GPS observations :


    The software (STRAINGPS) suitably implemented to estimate the strain tensor
    from repeated GPS surveys of deformation control networks. We applied this
    software to three real geophysical situations. The first concerns the geodynamic
    (long term) induced deformation at regional scale, by estimating extensional
    strain rate ((0.22±0.06)×10−7) per year in central-southern Italy across the
    Apennines chain; the second is co-seismic strain by the assessment of the strike
    slip style of the Molise (central-southern Italy) earthquakes (31 October and 1
    November 2002); the last regards the subsidence induced strain in the Travale-
    Radicondoli (central Italy) exploitation area.
