2. A brass tube is surrounded by a tube made from 303 SE stainless annealed bar....
(a) Both tube and solid bar shown in Figure 3 are made of aluminium alloy with shear modulus of elasticity of 27 GPa. Analyse the structure and explain the type of stress experienced by the circular tube and solid circular bar. Determine the maximum shear stresses in both the bar and tube, and determine the angle of twist (in degrees) at end A of the bar. Given I tube = 1.0848 x 10 mm. 500 cm 500 cm Tube thickness...
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...
