Question (3):
At a temperature of 5°C, 3 mm gap exists between two polymer bars and rigid support, as shown
in the (Fig.3). Bar (1) is 50 mm wide and 20 mm thick [E = 800 Mpa, a = 140 x 10-6/°C ].
Bar(2) is 75 mm wide and 25 mm thick [E = 2.7 Gpa, a = 67 x 10-6/°C]. The supports at A
and C are rigid. Determine the lowest temperature at which the 3mm gap is closed, the normal
sresses in the bars(1) & (2) and the normal strains in the bars (1) & (2).
