Several problems about strain calculation and analysis and correction of related deviation*
Abstract
There exists many kinds of calculation models of plane and spherical strain fields, but the results of these models are different. The representative models was analyzed, and got some useful conclusions, in which some models are unbiased, some have deviations that can be corrected, some can only be used to compute strain in a uniform medium and can not be extended, and some can be used in the calculation and analysis of continuous strain field as well. Meanwhile, the correction relationship for spherical difference movement (displacement) computed from strain results was given, and the meaning of the non – differential term in spherical strain model was demonstrated.
