The figure below shows a uniform slender bar supported by cantilevers at A and C. At B a linear spring with stiffness K' is connected to an additional point mass 'm'. Note the physical pr...
Problem 4 (20%) Figure 5 shows a uniform elastic bar fixed at one end and attached to a mass M at the other end. The cross sectional area for the bar is A, mass density per unit length p, modulus of elasticity E and second moment of area I. For the longitudinal vibration: S Set the necessary coordinate system, governing equation of motion and boundary conditions a. b. Derive the general solution. Explain how you can obtain the natural frequencies...
A 3 m rigid bar AB is supported with a vertical translational spring at A and a pin at B The bar is subjected to a linearly varying distributed load with maximum intensity g Calculate the vertical deformation of the spring if the spring constant is 700 kN/m. (ans: 21.43 mm) 2. A steel cable with a nominal diameter of 25 mm is used in a construction yard to lift a bridge section weighing 38 kN. The cable has an...
