- A W 8 × 28 beam of a length 10 ft is held between immoveable supports. The beam has a modulus of elasticity E = 29,000 ksi and coefficient of thermal expansion a = 6.5 ×10-6 /?. If the temperature of the beam is raised uniformly by an amount AT = 20°F, calculate the thermal stress aTin the beam.arrow_forwardThe rails of a railroad track are welded together at their ends (to form continuous rails and thus eliminate the clacking sound of the wheels) when the temperature is 60°F. What compressive stress ?? =6.5×10-6 /? is produced in the rails when they are heated by the sun to 120"F if the coefficient of thermal expansion a = the modulus of elasticity E = 30 × 106 psi?arrow_forwardAn aluminum bar has length L = 6 ft and diameter d = 1.375 in. The stress-strain curse for the aluminum is shown in Fig. 1.34. The initial straight, line part of the curve has a slope (modulus of elasticity) of 10.6 × 106 psi. The bar is loaded by tensile forces P = 44.6 k and then unloaded. (a) That is the permanent set of the bar? (b) If the bar is reloaded. what is the proportional limit? hint: Use the concepts illustrated in Figs. l.39b and 1.40.arrow_forward

(b) If the strain must be limited to 1.01, find the maximum acceptable inflation pressurearrow_forwardAn elastic rubber sphere of radius 20mm is pressed upon a rigid sphere of radius 50mm. The Young’s modulus of rubber is 0.1GPa and the Poisson’s ratio is 0.45. If the maximum allowable pressure below the indenter is 10MPa, determine the maximum contact force that we can apply and the corresponding contact radius.arrow_forwardA steel bar of 5 mm is heated from 15° C to 40° C and it is free to expand.

- A circular rod and a 0.1-in.-thick rectangular bar are both made of a plastic material that has an elastic modulus of E = 2.3 GPa and a Poisson’s ratio of ν = 0.33. The rod and the bar are initially the same length L. After a particular load is applied, the 3.6-in.-wide rectangular bar is elongated by some amount ΔL and its width is reduced by 0.096 in. If the 1.3-in. diameter rod is stretched by the same amount ΔL, determine its change in diameter. Expansion is positive, while contraction is negative.arrow_forward5.
