Term: Strain Tensor
Definition: A mathematical representation of the deformation of materials expressed as a matrix.
Term: Cylindrical Coordinates
Definition: A coordinate system that specifies each point by its distance from a reference point, its angle from a reference direction, and its height.
Term: Radial Strain
Definition: The longitudinal strain occurring in the radial direction of a cylindrical body.
Term: Hoop Strain
Definition: The circumferential strain that accounts for elongation of a line element directed along the circumferential direction of a cylinder.
Term: Shear Strain
Definition: A measure of how much a line segment deforms when subject to a shear force.
