                              ii.            Energy storage elements

                            iii.            Locating (fixing, joining) elements

                           iv.            Friction reduction elements

n-    The differences between:

                                i.             Tensile and Compression Stresses, σt σc

                              ii.            Shear and Torsional Stresses, τsτt

                            iii.            Yield and Ultimate Stresses, σyσu

                           iv.            (Pa) and (MPa)

                             v.            Simple beam and Cantilever

o-    Find the following:

                                i.            Area (A) and Second moment of area (I) of a rectangle (B,H)

                              ii.            Area (A) and Second/Polar moment of area (I, J) of a circle (R)

 

 

2- Find the point and value of maximum stress on the beam, (circular cross sectional area (d = 20 mm)) .

Where:

F = 150 N, F1 = 100 N, I = 2000 mm4

L = 400 mm, L1 = 100 mm, L2 = 250 mm

Solution Hint:

Using ΣFy = 0, ΣMo = 0, to find

R1 =
R2 =

Draw: BMD and obtain point and value of Mmax

Calculate: σb (using: M, y, I)

 

3- A Force of 2000 N, is applied on a tip of a beam of rectangular cross section (10 x 4 mm) and with a length of 120 mm. Chose suitable steel, taking SF = 6.

a- show the force direction on the element and the reaction due to this force to induce the following stress:

 

i-                   Tensile

ii-                 Compression

iii-               Bending

iv-               Torsion, J = b h/[3 (b2 + h2)]

v-                 Shear

And find the stress due to the force applied:

 

Solution;

i-                   Tensile stress, σt = F/A = 2000/(10x4) = 50 MPa

σt = σall =50 MPa

σu = σall x SF = 50 x 6 = 300 MPa

From chart 9, chose steel EN1A (420 MPa)
