Strain energy is the ratio between change in length of a body to the original length.

Stress is directly proportional to the strain, when the body with in a elastic limit.

Strain energy is defined as the ability to absorb energy during deformation when the load is applied.

Resilience is defined as the ability to store energy upto elastic limit.

Max energy stored in elastic limit is called proof resilience.

Energy stored up to fracture is called toughness.

Per unit volume is called modulus of resilience and modulus of toughness.

The area under the stress diagram represent the toughness but with in the elastic limit it is denotes the value of strain energy.

Strain energy is the energy stored by a system undergoing deformation.

Yadvendra Kaushik said:   1 decade ago
Strain energy is equal to the work done by system and it may be regained by allowing the body to relax.

The best example of this is a clockwork device which stores strain energy and then gives it up.

After elastic limit we can't regain the original one, so up to elastic limit only is the right answer.

Strain means when a load apply to the body some elongation will appear that means change in length by original length is called strain.

Basavaraj Vaddatti said:   1 decade ago
Energy stored in the body when strained is termed as a strain energy. Whereas, the strain energy within elastic limit is called resilience.

Actually it is the property the energy stored in the body. Perfectly upto elastic limit resilience. Upto fracture toughness. Max energy upto elastic limit proof resilience. It is not specifically upto elastic limit I think answer is wrong. Please give me suggestion.

When the load is acting on the body, it tends to elongate or it changes its length (either decreasing or increasing) that is called strain the energy applied is known as strain.
