Axial Load

When a bar of the uniform cross-section is acted by a load, such that the load acts along the longitudinal axis of the bar, such kinds of loadings are known as axial loadings. In general terms, a load is an external force acting on a component. An axial load acts perpendicular to the geometric cross-section of the component. Based on the direction of the application of the load, an axial load can be tensile or compressive. The analysis of bodies under the action of axial loads is generally studied under the branch of mechanics, known as statics.

each having a stiffness k = 100 N/m. If the springs are

The metal strap has a thickness t and width w and is subjected to a temperature gradient T1 to T2 (T1 6 T2). This causes the modulus of elasticity for the material to vary linearly from E1 at the top to a smaller amount E2 at the bottom.

Determine the position d where the axial force P must be applied so that the bar stretches uniformly over its cross-section. w
