Problem 104

A hollow steel tube with an inside diameter of 100 mm must carry a tensile load of 400 kN.
Determine the outside diameter of the tube if the stress is limited to 120 MN/m2.

Solution 104

Find: Outside diameter

Given:
Inside diameter = 100 mm
Tensile Load = 400 KN = 400000N
Stress = 120 MN/m2 or 120Megapascal or 120 N/mm2
Note:1MN/m2 = 1MPa
Formula:
Applied Load
Stress =
Area
P
=
A

Area of Cylinder = ¼ π (D2- d2)

Solution:
Let D = outside diameter
A = ¼ π (D2- d2)

= P/ A
P= A
400000N = 120 N / mm 2 (1 ⁄ 4 π (D2-(100mm)2))
400000N = 30 N / mm 2 (π ¿(D2-(10000mm2)
D2-10000mm2= 4244.1318 mm2
D2 = 119.35 mm

Problem 105
A homogeneous 800 kg bar AB is supported at either end by a cable as shown in Fig. P-105. Calculate the
smallest area of each cable if the stress is not to exceed 90 MPa in bronze and 120 MPa in steel.

Given:
Weight of bar = 800 kg
Maximum allowable stress for bronze = 90 MPa
Maximum allowable stress for steel = 120 MPa
Required: Smallest area of bronze and steel cable
Given:
Diameter of cable = 0.6 inch
Weight of bar = 6000 lb
Required: Stress in the cable
Formula :
Stress of the cable = Tensile Load of the cable / Area of the Cable
Solution:
Redraw the figure:
T= tensile Load
Note:

1. T is going upward since cable is pulling from smooth peg D

2. Weight of bar is downward since it’s the one being carried
3. Since it is supported by a smooth pin at C, we will make summation of moments at point C

1. Note: Clockwise = positive

Meaning, upward is positive and downward is negative

moment at C = Distance from C (Load) = 0

(distance from C to B) (perpendicular tensile load of B to D) + (distance from C to A)(perpendicular

tensile load of A to D) - (distance from C to B) (weight of the bar) = 0

Note: all Load must be perpendicular 90 degree

Since tensile load of cable AD is at angle, we must get the perpendicular tensile load

So,

Depending on the angle you will use, perpendicular load of A to D is T sin α or T cos β as shown in the
illustration below,

If based on angle α, If based on angle β

T sin α T T cos β T

β β
α α
T cos α T sin α

Getting all the sides by:

Pythagorean theorem (right triangle ABD)

C2=A2+B2

C2=32+52
C=
√ 34
For right triangle,

opposite adjacent
sin α= cos β=
hypotenuse hypotenuse

3 3 β
sin α = cos β=
√34 √34

So, you can use either of the two.

Perpendicular Tensile Load from A to D

3
T sin α = T T cos β =T 3/√ 34
√34
Then,

Moment at C

5 ft (T) + 10ft (T 3/√ 34) - 5ft (6000 lb) = 0

Finding T, (transposing)

Formula:
Since we’re looking for the cable part
Stress of the cable = (Tensile Load of of the Cable)/( Areaof the cable)
= T/A
Note: cable is cylindrical shape so
Area of cylinder = A = 1/4 π (D2- d2)
Since no inside diameter
A = 1/4 π ((.6in)2- 02)
=1/4 π (.36in2)
=9 /100 π in2 or sq.in

= 2957.13 lb/¿

= 10458.71 lb per sq. in or psi

Given:
Axial load P = 3000 lb
Cross-sectional area of the rod = 0.5 in2
Required: Stress in steel, aluminum, and bronze sections
Solution 107
Note:
Solve for reaction:
First, we will solve first the reaction at the surface
Let RAX be the reaction at the surface where rod is rigidly attached. (see figure below)
Summation of all forces acting along the X-axis
Let all forces going to the surface as negative and away from the surface as positive
∑ Fx = 0 = - R AX-3000+4(3000) = 9000

Transposing RAX and the numbers , we get,

RAX= 9klb

 create an Axial Load diagram

RAX

RAX
 0 0
  Start with 0 going upward to RAX (since RAX is positive)
 RAX is 9klb so we will draw a straight horizontal line from the surface up to the point
where another axial load appears which is P
 Let axial load acting along or going in the direction of RAX be positive
RAX + P = 9klb + 3klb = 12klb.
We will go an upward (+3Kup) vertical line where the P started acting upon
 Make a straight horizontal line until another axial load appears
Another axial load appears at the end of the rod which is 4P. Since it is going in the
opposite direction of RAX , then it will be negative.
12klb – 4P = 12klb - 4(3klb) = 0
Go downward (-12k down) which is 0
Since it is 0, this means our diagram is correct proving that the axial load 12klb remains
constant at the of the rod
 Area of rod is uniform to steel, aluminum and bronze

From axial load diagram

Given:
Maximum allowable stress for steel = 140 MPa
Maximum allowable stress for aluminum = 90 MPa
Maximum allowable stress for bronze = 100 MPa
Required: Maximum safe value of axial load P

Solve for reaction:

First, we will solve first the reaction at the surface
Let RAX be the reaction at the surface where rod is rigidly attached. (see figure below)
Summation of all forces acting along the X-axis
Let all forces going to the surface is negative and away from the surface as positive
∑ Fx = 0 = - R -4P+P-2P

RAX = -4P-2P-P = -5P

Solution 108

RAX

RAX
 Start with 0 going downward to RAX (since RAX is negative)
 RAX is -5P so we will draw a straight horizontal line from the surface up to the point
where another axial load appears which is 4P
 Let axial load acting along or going in the direction of RAX be positive (plus)
RAX + P = (-5P) + 4P = -P
Go upward (+4P up) which is - P
 Make a straight horizontal line until another axial load appears
Another axial load appears at the end of the aluminum which is P. Since it is going in the
opposite direction of RAX , then it will negative (minus)
Since we have -P from the result
-P – P = -2P
Go downward (-P down) which is -2P
 Make a straight horizontal line until another axial load appears
Another axial load appears at the end of the bronze which is 2P. Since it is going in the
same direction of RAX , then it will be positive (plus)
Since we have -2P from the result
-2P +2P = 0
Go upward (+2P up) which is 0
Since it is 0, this means our diagram is correct proving that the axial load 2P remains
constant at the of the rod
 Area of rod are different for steel, aluminum and bronze
From Axial Load diagram:

Note:
1. Disregard the negative sign since there is no negative value of load, negative
only means compression

30ksi so ,

AB = AC = 30 ksi

Compressive stress:
=AP=178080(1000)
=44 94MPa  answer

A tank or pipe carrying a fluid or gas under a pressure is subjected to tensile forces,
which resist bursting, developed across longitudinal and transverse sections.
TANGENTIAL STRESS (Circumferential Stress)
Consider the tank shown being subjected to an internal pressure p. The length of the
tank is Land the wall thickness is t. Isolating the right half of the tank:
The forces acting are the total pressures caused by the internal pressure p and the total
tension in the walls T.
F=pA=pDL
T= tAwall= ttL
FH=0
F=2T
pDL=2( ttL)
t=2tpD

If there exist an external pressure po and an internal pressure pi, the formula may be

expressed as:
t=2t(pi−po)D

LONGITUDINAL STRESS,  L
Consider the free body diagram in the transverse section of the tank:

The total force acting at the rear of the tank F must equal to the total longitudinal stress
on the wall PT= LAwall. Since t is so small compared to D, the area of the wall is close
to  Dt
F=pA=p4 D2
PT= L Dt
FH=0
PT=F
L Dt=p4 D2
t=4tpD

If there exist an external pressure po and an internal pressure pi, the formula may be

expressed as:
t=4t(pi−po)D

It can be observed that the tangential stress is twice that of the longitudinal stress.
t=2 L

SPHERICAL SHELL

If a spherical tank of diameter D and thickness t contains gas under a pressure of p,

the stress at the wall can be expressed as:
t=4t(pi−po)D

Part (b)
From (a),  t=2tpD and  l=4tpD thus,  t=2 l, this shows that tangential stress is the
critical.
t=2tpD
120=2(20)p(400)
p=12MPa  answer
The bursting force will cause a stress on the longitudinal section that is twice to that of
the transverse section. Thus, fracture is expected as shown.

COMMENT
Given a free surface of water, the actual pressure distribution on the vessel is not
uniform. It varies linearly from 0 at the free surface to γh at the bottom (see figure
below). Using this actual pressure distribution, the total hydrostatic pressure is reduced
by 50%. This reduction of force will take our design into critical situation; giving us a
maximum height of 200% more than the h above.

Discussion:

It is necessary to tighten the bolts initially to press the gasket to the flange, to avoid
leakage of steam. If the pressure will cause 110 MPa of stress to each bolt causing it to
fail, leakage will occur. If this is sudden, the cap may blow.

CHAPTER 2. STRAIN
SIMPLE STRAIN
Also known as unit deformation, strain is the ratio of the change in length caused by the
applied force, to the original length.

= L
where   is the deformation and L is the original length, thus   is dimensionless.
Suppose that a metal specimen be placed in tension-compression-testing machine. As the axial
load is gradually increased in increments, the total elongation over the gauge length is
measured at each increment of the load and this is continued until failure of the specimen takes
place. Knowing the original cross-sectional area and length of the specimen, the normal
stress  and the strain   can be obtained. The graph of these quantities with the stress   along
the y-axis and the strain   along the x-axis is called the stress-strain diagram. The stress-strain
diagram differs in form for various materials. The diagram shown below is that for a medium-
carbon structural steel. Metallic engineering materials are classified as
either ductile or brittlematerials. A ductile material is one having relatively large tensile strains
up to the point of rupture like structural steel and aluminum, whereas brittle materials has a
relatively small strain up to the point of rupture like cast iron and concrete. An arbitrary strain of
0.05 mm/mm is frequently taken as the dividing line between these two classes.

Stress-strain diagram of a medium-carbon structural steel

 
Proportional Limit (Hooke's Law)
From the origin O to the point called proportional limit, the stress-
strain curve is a straight line. This linear relation between elongation
and the axial force causing was first noticed by Sir Robert
Hooke in 1678 and is called Hooke's Law that within the
proportional limit, the stress is directly proportional to strain or

 or  =k
The constant of proportionality k is called the Modulus of
Elasticity E or Young's Modulus and is equal to the slope of the
stress-strain diagram from O to P. Then

=E
Elastic Limit
The elastic limit is the limit beyond which the material will no longer go back to its original shape
when the load is removed, or it is the maximum stress that may e developed such that there is
no permanent or residual deformation when the load is entirely removed.

Elastic Limit
The elastic limit is the limit beyond which the material will no longer go back to its original shape
when the load is removed, or it is the maximum stress that may e developed such that there is
no permanent or residual deformation when the load is entirely removed.

Elastic and Plastic Ranges

The region in stress-strain diagram from O to P is called the elastic range. The region from P to
R is called the plastic range.

Yield Point
Yield point is the point at which the material will have an appreciable elongation or yielding
without any increase in load.

Ultimate Strength
The maximum ordinate in the stress-strain diagram is the ultimate strength or tensile strength.

Rapture Strength
Rapture strength is the strength of the material at rupture. This is also known as the breaking
strength.
Modulus of Resilience
Modulus of resilience is the work done on a unit volume of material as the force is gradually
increased from O to P, in N·m/m3. This may be calculated as the area under the stress-strain
curve from the origin O to up to the elastic limit E (the shaded area in the figure). The resilience
of the material is its ability to absorb energy without creating a permanent distortion.

Modulus of Toughness
Modulus of toughness is the work done on a unit volume of material as the force is gradually
increased from O to R, in N·m/m3. This may be calculated as the area under the entire stress-
strain curve (from O to R). The toughness of a material is its ability to absorb energy without
causing it to break.

Working Stress, Allowable Stress, and Factor of Safety

Working stress is defined as the actual stress of a material under a given loading. The
maximum safe stress that a material can carry is termed as the allowable stress. The allowable
stress should be limited to values not exceeding the proportional limit. However, since
proportional limit is difficult to determine accurately, the allowable tress is taken as either the
yield point or ultimate strength divided by a factor of safety. The ratio of this strength (ultimate or
yield strength) to allowable strength is called the factor of safety.

Axial Deformation
In the linear portion of the stress-strain diagram, the tress is proportional to strain and is
given by
=E

since  =P A  and  = L , then AP=E L

=PLAE=E L
To use this formula, the load must be axial, the bar must have a uniform cross-sectional
area, and the stress must not exceed the proportional limit.
If however, the cross-sectional area is not uniform, the axial deformation can be
determined by considering a differential length and applying integration.
 =EP 0LLdx 

where A=ty and y and t, if variable, must be expressed in terms of x.

For a rod of unit mass    suspended vertically from one end, the total elongation due to
its own weight is
=2E gL2=2AEMgL

where    is in kg/m3, L is the length of the rod in mm, M is the total mass of the rod in
kg, A is the cross-sectional area of the rod in mm2, and g=9 81m/s2.

Stiffness, k
Stiffness is the ratio of the steady force acting on an elastic body to the resulting
displacement. It has the unit of N/mm.
k= P

Required:
Show that the total elongation δ = ρgL2 / 2E.
If total mass is M, show that δ = MgL/2AE
Solution 205

=PLAE
From the figure:

For you to feel the situation, position yourself in pull-up exercise with your hands on the
bar and your body hang freely above the ground. Notice that your arms suffer all your
weight and your lower body fells no stress (center of weight is approximately just below
the chest). If your body is the bar, the elongation will occur at the upper half of it.
