This equation may be used only if the rod is homogeneous and has a
uniform cross section of area A.
If the rod is loaded at other points, or if it consist of several portions of
various cross section and possibly of different materials, then:

In the case of a rod of variable cross section, the strain depends upon the position of de point

Q where it is computed and is defined as =

Then

= =
And the total deformation is obtained as

=
0

Examples
Two solid cylindrical rods are joined at B and loaded as shown. Road AB
is made of steel (E=200GPa), and rod BC of brass (laton) (E=105 GPa).
Determine a) the total deformation of the composite rod ABC and b) the
deflection of point B.
