For one-dimensional small deformation, say in the x

displacements are obtained using force
equilibrium conditions for a basic element, along
with force/deformation relationships.
Stresses must be related to the strains through the
stress/strain law (generally called the constitutive This method is most easily adaptable to line or
law). The simplest of stress/strain laws, Hookes law, one-dimensional elements (spring, bar, and
often used in stress analysis, is given by: beam elements)

The figure below shows a transnational spring which only
needs one coordinate to specify its position. The
displacement u defines the horizontal movement
(translation) of point P due to a horizontal external force F
applied at that point. Therefore, the spring system shown
has a single (one) degree of freedom.
