SUMMARY

This discussion focuses on calculating stress, strain, and dimensional changes in a component subjected to compressive and shear forces. The component's material properties include a Young’s Modulus of Elasticity of 200 GNm-2, a Modulus of Rigidity of 90 GNm-2, and a Poisson's ratio of 0.32. Key calculations include stress values of -7.07 MPa for the circular section and -3.125 MPa for the square section, with corresponding strains of -3.535 x 10-5 and -1.5625 x 10-5. The change in length of the component is determined to be -7.75 mm, with a change in diameter of 1.24 mm for the circular section.

PREREQUISITES

Hello this is my first post here so basically I've had my best crack at all the questions all I am really after is a bit or re assurance as to my answers and if any are wrong were I have gone wrong essentially. I've tried to include all my working out were possible.

1. Homework Statement

The component shown in Fig 1 is made from a material with the following properties and is subjected to a compressive force of 5kN.

fig1-jpg.74374.jpg


Material Properties :
Young’s Modulus of Elasticity – 200 GNm - 2
Modulus of Rigidity – 90 GNm - 2
Poisons ratio – 0.32

2. Homework Equations

Calculate :
(a) The stress in :
(i) the circular section
(ii) the square section

(b) The strain in :
(i) The circular section
(ii) The square section

(c) The change in length of the component

(d) The change in diameter of the circular section

(e) The change in the 40mm dimension on the square section

(f) If the same component were subjected to a shear force of 7 kN as shown in FIG 2, calculate the shear strain in :

(i) The circular section
(ii) The square section

3. The Attempt at a Solution

Calculate :
(a) The stress in :
(i) the circular section

Stress = Force / Area
Area of circular section = πr2
π(15)2 = 706.8583mm2
Answer : Stress = 5000 / 706.86 = - 7.07MPa

(ii) the square section

Stress = Force / Area
Area of the square section = length x height
40 x 40 = 1600mm2
Answer : Stress = 5000 / 1600 = - 3.125MPa

(b) The strain in :
(i) The circular section

ε = dl / l0 = σ / E
σ = F / A = 7.07MPa
E = 200GN / m - 2 = 200000MPa
7.07 / 200000 = 0.00003535
Answer: Strain = - 3.535 x 10 - 5


(ii) The square section

ε = dl / l0 = σ / E
σ = F / A = 3.125MPa
E = 200GN / m - 2 = 200000MPa
3.125 / 200000 = 0.000015625
Answer: Strain = - 1.5625 x 10 - 5


(c) The change in length of the component

ε = dl / l0

For the Cylinder Section
ε = 3.535 x 10 - 5
l0 = 60
dl = ε x l0
dl = 3.535 x 10 - 5 x 60 = 0.002121
= - 2.121 x 10 - 3

For the Square Section

ε = 1.5625 x 10 - 5
l0 = 60
dl = ε x l0
dl = 1.5625 x 10 - 5 x 60 = 0.005625
= - 5.625 x 10 - 3

Adding the two changes together
- 2.121 x 10 - 3 + - 5.625 x 10 - 3
= - 0.007746
Answer Change in Length = - 7.75mm

(d) The change in diameter of the circular section

Change in Diameter = - original diameter x poisions ratio x (Change in length / Original length)
- 30 x 0.32 x ( - 7.75 / 60 ) = 1.24
Answer Change in diameter = 1.24mm

(e) The change in the 40mm dimension on the square section

Poisions ratio (v) = εx / εz = - εy / εz
εx = εy = - vεz
= - 0.32 x -1.5625 x 10 - 5
= 0.000005
Δx = εxx0 = 0.000005 x 40 = 0.0002
Δx = εyy0 = 0.000005 x 40 = 0.0002
Answer Change in dimension on the square section
= 2 x 10 - 4

(f) If the same component were subjected to a shear force of 7 kN as shown in FIG 2, calculate the shear strain in :

eng2-jpg.75688.jpg


(i) The circular section

Stress = 7000 / 706.86 = 9.9029MPa
Shear Strain = Shear Stress / Modulus of Rigidity
Modulus of Rigidity = 90GN/m - 2
= 90000MPa
Shear Strain = 9.9029 / 90000 = 1.1003 x 10 - 4
Answer Shear Strain = 1.1003 x 10 - 4

(ii) The square section

Stress = 7000 / 1600 = 4.375MPa
Shear Strain = Shear Stress / Modulus of Rigidity
Modulus of Rigidity = 90GN/m - 2
= 90000MPa
Shear Strain = 4.375 / 90000 = 4.86 x 10 - 5
Answer Shear Strain = 4.86 x 10 - 5
