The strain thickness is illustrated by the image below. To calculate strain thickness, two essential parameters are needed and these parameters are Strain Width (εw) and Strain Length (εl).
The formula for calculating strain thickness:
Where:
εt = Strain Thickness
εw = Strain Width
And then, εl = Strain Length
Given an example;
Find the strain thickness when the strain width is 21 and the strain length is 7.
This implies that;
εw = Strain Width = 21
εl = Strain Length = 7
That is, εt = εw + εl
εt = 21 + 7
εt = 28
Therefore, the strain thickness is 28.
Calculating the Strain Width when the Strain Thickness and the Strain Length are Given
εw = εt – εl
Where:
εw = Strain Width
εt = Strain Thickness
And then, εl = Strain Length
Let’s solve an example;
Find the strain width when the strain thickness is 18 and the strain length is 6.
This implies that;
εt = Strain Thickness = 18
εl = Strain Length = 6
That is, εw = εt – εl
εw = 18 – 6
εw = 12

Calculating the Strain Length when the Strain Thickness and the Strain Width are Given
εl = εt – εw
Where:
εl = Strain Length
εt = Strain Thickness
And then, εw = Strain Width
Let’s solve an example;
Find the strain length when the strain thickness is 24 and the strain width is 16.
This implies that;
εt = Strain Thickness = 24
εw = Strain Width = 16
That is, εl = εt – εw
εl = 24 – 16
εl = 8
Therefore, the strain length is 8.
