Find the force that is needed to produce longitudinal strain


An aluminum 2024 T3 bar of unit cross-sectional area is subjected to a tensile force in the longitudinal direction. If the lateral surface of the bar is confined and not allowed to contract during loading, find the force that is needed to produce a 1% longitudinal strain. Compare this with the corresponding load for the bar under simple tension.
