Jan Stránský proposed the following answer:
Hello,

please use question mark (?) at the end of questions.
The current description looks like you are just making statements and then you thank us. Probably not what you wanted to express..

Now **guessing** that 1) and 2) should have been questions:

1), yes, strain is computed as length difference / original length [1].
It is not percentage as it is dimensionless (percentage would be multiplied by 100)

2) depends on what you want to simulate :-)
in certain case you should, in other cases you should not

cheers
Jan
