Hi,
I am searching for a structure that would take a load (150kg).
The problem is that I want it not to break (Sigma=P/A) but I want it not to be stiff (K=AE/L).
The only parameter I have is the area A but it is opposite in the equations (I can't really change the length and I did not find materials with small E but large Sigma (max tensile strength)).
So I thought to change the design (instead of a single bar) to have something flexible but that could take a big load without breaking.
Any idea ?
Thank you very much !
Alex
