Example:
An aluminum specimen shown in figure has
a diameter of d0 = 25mm and a gauge length
of L0 = 250mm. If a force of 165kN elongates
the gauge length of 1.20mm, determine the
modulus of elasticity. Also, determine by how
much the force causes the diameter of the
specimen to contact. Take Gal = 26 GPa and
= 440 MPa.
Solution:
Example:
A rigid beam AB rests on the two short posts as shown in
figure, AC is made of steel and has a diameter of 20mm,
and BD is made of aluminum and has a diameter of 40mm.
Determine the displacement of point F on AB if a vertical
load of 90 kN is applied over this point. Take Est = 200 GPa,
Eal = 70 GPa.
Solution:
FB + F A P = 0
A/B = 0
Example:
Solution:
Equilibrium.
- 45 kN + Fal + Fbr = 0
Example:
The three A-36 steel bars as
shown in figure are pin
connected to a rigid member. If
the applied load on the member
is 15 kN, determine the force
developed in each bar. Bars AB
and EF each have a crosssectional area of 25 mm2, and
bar CD has a cross-sectional
area of 15 mm2.
