Chapter 12, Problem 12.6P

Consider a flat plate at an angle of attack in a viscous supersonic flow; i.e., there is both skin friction drag and wave drag on the plate. Use linear theory for the lift and wave-drag coefficients. Denote the total skin friction drag coefficient by C f , and assume that it does not change with angle of attack. (a) Derive the expression for the angle of attack at which maximum lift-to-drag ratio occurs as a function of C f and freestream Mach number. (b) Derive the expression for the maximum lift-to-drag ratio as a function of C f and freestream Mach number M. Answers: (a) α = ( C f ) 1 / 2 ( M 2 1 ) 1 / 4 / 2 ; (b) ( c l / c d ) max = ( c f ) 1 / 2 ( M 2 1 ) 1 / 4

The assembly consists of two 12-mm-diameter A992 steel rods AB and CD, a 20-mm-diameter 6061-T6 aluminum rod EF, and a rigid bar AEC. If the horizontal displacement of F is 0.024 mm, determine the magnitude of P.
Complete solution and Fbd only. I prefer handwritten solution. I will Upvote The assembly shown consists of a weightless, rigid bar AC, pinned at B, that is attachedto the steel and aluminum rods. Initially, bar AC is in horizontal position; there is agap, Δ = 9 mm, between the lower end of the steel rod and its pin support at D.Neglecting the weight of the rods, compute their stresses when they are subjected to atemperature increase of 35°C and the lower end of the steel rod is attached to itssupport. answers: σSt = 194.617 MPaσAl = 97.308 MPa
