Problem Set 2 (Strain)

1. The rectangular element is deformed as shown. Determine the normal strains in the diagonals
and the shear strains in the upper and lower right hand corners.

2. The structure in the figure is composed of two rigid bars (AB and CD) and two vertical rods made
of aluminum and steel. Determine the maximum force P that can be applied to the structure if
the vertical displacement of its point of application is limited to 6 mm. Neglect the weights of
the members.

3. Two 1.75-in.-thick rubber pads are bonded to three steel


plates to form the shear mount shown. Find the
displacement of the middle plate when the 1200-lb load is
applied. Consider the deformation of rubber only. Use E =
500 psi and = 0.48 for rubber.
4. A rectangular steel block is 3 in long along x, 2 in long
along y and 4 in long along z. The block is subjected to a
triaxial loading of three uniformly distributed forces as
follows: 48 kips in tension in the x direction, 60 kips
compression in the y direction, and 54 kips tension in the z
direction. If = 0.30 and E = 29 x 106 psi, determine the single uniformly distributed load in the x
direction that would produce the same deformation in the y direction as the original loading.
5. A circular bottom plate made up of an aluminum cylinder (force fitted inside an auxetic cylinder,
= 0) is to be used as bottom plate of a storage tank. The plate is designed to prevent transverse
expansion of the aluminum cylinder. When the tank is filled,
the aluminum plate experiences a uniformly distributed
force of 90kN. a) Determine the stresses along the
transverse axes of the aluminum plate. b) Determine the
deformation of both cylinders along the y-axis.
6. The pin-connected structure occupies the
position shown under no load. When the loads D
= 16 kips and E are applied, the rigid bar C
becomes horizontal. Bar A is made of an
aluminum alloy (E = 10,600 ksi) and bar B is
made of red brass (E = 15,000 ksi). The cross-
sectional areas are 0.75 in2 for A and 2.25 in2 for
B. Determine the weight E and the axial stresses
in the two bars.

7. The rigid link DEF is pinned at E and attached to


the steel rod FG (E=200 GPa). A 0.1 mm gap exists
between the link and member ABC, which is fixed
at A. If member FG is subjected to a stress of 30
MPa, determine the force P exerted at point B.
Member AB is made of bronze with E= 100 GPa.
Member BC is a composite cylinder made of
hollow bronze and solid steel (E = 200 GPa).

8. Rigid triangle ABC is pinned at B and supported


by a steel-reinforced aluminum shaft at A and an
aluminum-copper rod at C. The steel-reinforced
aluminum shaft is fixed at F while the aluminum-
copper rod is fixed at E. Determine the
maximum weight W of triangle ABC if the
allowable stress for steel, copper, and aluminum
are 36 ksi, 11.4 ksi, and 60 ksi, respectively, and
the allowable deformation for the aluminum-
copper rod CDE is 0.1 in.

9. Rods A and C are connected to an initially


horizontal rigid bar AC while rod B is attached
to rod A. Determine the rigid bars angle of tilt
when the two forces P1 and P2 are applied to
the system. Also determine the Poissons ratio
of rod C if its diameter decreases to 0.9996 in.
10. A 3.5 ft-long slab is to be placed on top of bars A, B, and C. A and C are aluminum bars (E = 10.6 x
103 ksi, A = 2 in2) with the same length. Bar B is a steel-brass composite (Est = 29 x103 ksi, Ebr =
14.6 x 103 ksi) with a steel core surrounded by a brass tube. The steel core has a diameter of 1 in
and the brass tube has an outer diameter of 3 in and an inner diameter of 1 in. Determine the
maximum weight of the slab if the allowable stresses of steel, aluminum, and brass are 36 ksi, 60
ksi, and 35 ksi, respectively.

11. The assembly consists of a steel bar A (Ast = 500 mm2, Est = 200 GPa, and st=
12 x 10-6), a rigid block C, and a bronze bar B (Abr = 2000mm2, Ebr = 100GPa,
and br = 18 x 10-6) securely fastened together to rigid supports at the ends as
shown. Initially, there is no stress in the members. The temperature drops
25C, and the load P of 200kN is applied. Determine the maximum normal
stresses in A and B for this condition.

12. A copper rod attached to a rigid bearing plate is inserted into a hollow aluminum cylinder as
shown in the figure. If the temperature increases by and a uniformly distributed load of
is applied on the plate, determine the stresses that develop in each material.

.
13. An aluminum rod (E = 70 GPa, = 23.6 x 10-6/C) and steel link (E = 200 GPa, = 11.7 x 10-6/C)
have the dimensions shown at a temperature of 20oC. The steel link is heated until the
aluminum rod can be fitted freely into it. The temperature of the whole assembly is then raised
to 150C. Determine the final stress in the rod and in the link.
