Hi Pongo38. Yes, I mean lateral displacement (In my original post I wrote axial displacement of a longitudinally tensioned elastic material).

Hi tiny-tim, Thanks! Sorry for the super delayed response. I'm honestly not sure where to start. I've taken mechanics courses, so I was going to use a beam-bending model, but I wasn't sure how that would apply to an elastic material that is already tensioned. Any advice would be...

Hi, I'm trying to figure out a method for calculating the force required to displace (axially by 5mm) an elastic material that is tensioned longitudinally at 105 N. Material properties: Cross-sectional area: 100mm^2 Stiffness, K = 1652 N/mm Modulus, E = 0.68 GPa Length of material...
