Plastic bar of diameter d = 32 mm is compressed in a testing device by a Force P = 190 N that is applied as shown in the figure. (a) Determine the normal and shear stresses acting: on all faces of stress elements oriented at (1 ) an angle 8 = 00, (2) an angle ?? = 22.5s, and (3) an angle ?? = 45°. In each case, show the stresses on a sketch of a properly oriented element. What are smaxtmax (b) Find smax and tmax in the plastic bar if a re-cantering spring of stiffness k is inserted into the testing device, as shown in the figure. The spring stillness is 1/6 of the axial stiffness of the plastic bar.
Two bars AC and BC of the same material support a vertical load P (see figure). The length L of the horizontal bar is fixed, but the angle fl can be varied by moving support A vertically and changing the length of bar AC to correspond with the new position of support A. The allowable stresses in the bars are the same in tension and compression. When the angle ft is reduced, bar AC becomes shorter, but the cross-sectional areas of both bars increase because the axial forces are larger. The opposite effects occur if the angle 0 is increased. Thus, the weight of the structure (which is proportional to the volume) depends upon the angle ft. Determine the angle ft so that the structure has minimum weight without exceeding the allowable stresses in the bars. Note: The weights of the bars are very small compared to the force P and may be disregarded.
