Question

– The weight is suspended from structural A–36 steel alloy and 2014-T6 aluminum alloy wires, each
having the same initial length of 10 ft and cross-sectional area of 7×10–3 in2 (Figure Q1). If the weight is increased
gradually, determine which wire yields first? Explain which material model and yield criterion you will use? Justify
your choices

Expert Solution

Step 1

Given that,

Weight is suspended from structured A-36 steel alloy and 2014 and aluminum alloy wires,

Tension in both the wire will be equally distributed in both the wire. So if the weight increases then, and steel wire.
