Problem One The circular rod shown is made of the steel alloy AISI 4140 OQT 700. It has a diameter of 2.00 in and an initial length of 72 in. An axial tensile load of 35 000 lb is applied during a certain operation. Compute: 1. the equivalent spring constant K, 2. the deformation X of the rod. The Young’s modulus of the steel is known to be 30,000,000 psi.
Problem Two Write the global stiffness matrix of the spring assemblage shown. Assume that all springs remain horizontal, the vertical bars at nodes 2 and 3 are rigid and allowed to slide horizontally to the left or right.
