A gold-alloy microbeam attached to a silicon wafer behaves like a cantilever beam subjected to a uniform load (see figure). The beam has a length L = 27.5 m and rectangular cross section of a width b = 4.0 m and thickness t = 0.88 m. The total load on the beam is 17.2 N. If the deflection at the end of the beam is 2.46 m is what is the modulus of elasticity Egof the gold alloy? (Use the formulas of Example 9-2.)
(Mechanics and Materials Class) Problem 7: Find the reactions at the supports, and find the shear force and bending moments.
Consider the beam shown in (Figure 1). Suppose that the distributed load intensities w1 = 60 lb/ft and w2 = 40 lb/ft . Follow the sign convention. Determine the internal normal force, shear force and moment at point C. Determine the internal normal force, shear force and moment at point D.
Can you please show me how to do this question; A steel beam, of lengths a = 5 m and b = 2 m and a hollow box cross section, is supported by a hinge support A and roller support B, see Figure Q.1. The width and height of the cross section are 200 mm and 300 mm, respectively, and the wall thickness of the cross section is 5 mm. The beam is under a distributed load of the intensity that linearly varies from q = 0 kN/m to q = 5.1 kN/m for AB span; and is constant with q = 5.1 kN/m for BC span. The Young’s modulus of steel is 200 GPa. Calculate: a) the vertical support reaction in support A. When sketching FBD, set the positive directions of both reactions in the positive direction of y axis. Enter your answer in kN to three decimal places.
A steel beam is simply supported at both ends and laterally loaded to bend it plastically, as shown in Figure Q3a(i). The cross section is hollow, and the beam dimensions are illustrated in Figure Qa (ii). Find the value of load P, Shape Factor, and Length of Plastic Lp when the critical section is in fully plastic condition if the steel acts elastic-perfectly plastic with a Yield Stress of 200 MPa.
A team of design engineers are designing an amusement park structure as in Figure 2below. The horizontal beam supporting the gondolas at both ends are supported by 2vertical bars, bar EB and bar CF with a cross sectional area of 11,100mm2 and 9,280mm2each. Gondola 1 (left) weighs 380 kN and Gondola 2 (right) weighs 360kN respectively. Due to theweight of both the gondolas, the design team needs to investigate the verticaldisplacements of both ends of the horizontal beam at A and D. You are required to helpthem analyze and calculate the vertical displacement at both ends due to the weight ofthe gondolas.
