The boom DF of the jib crane and the column DE have a uniform weight of 50 lb/ft. If the hoist and load weigh 300 lb, determine the resultant internal loadings in the crane on cross sections through points A, B, and C. Equations of Equilibrium: For point A Equations of Equilibrium: For point B…
Buckling is a physical occurrence observed in slender structures, such as columns, beams, rods or panel; when it undergoes bending due to applied loads, leading to eventual buckling. This phenomenon can result in the complete failure of the structure. Buckling occurs when the applied load surpasses the structure’s buckling load, which represents the maximum load…
Determine the resultant internal loadings on the cross section through point D. Assume the reactions at the supports A and B are vertical. Referring to the FBD of the entire beam Referring to the FBD of this segment Sample problems and notes are based on the following text book: Mechanics of Materials 8th Edition ISBN-13: 978-0136022305…
Objective The object of the experiment is to determine the material of an unknown specimen based on the material young’s modulus(E). Young’s modulus is the ratio of the stress to strain in the plastic region of the stress-strain diagram. This mechanical property is material specific. The data which was gathered during this experiment is as…
A leaf spring is a basic type of spring often used for suspension in vehicles. Originally known as a laminated or carriage spring, and sometimes called a semi-elliptical spring, elliptical spring, or cart spring, leaf springs are one of the oldest forms of vehicle suspension. A Leaf spring consists of one or more narrow, curved,…
Tension test, alternatively referred to as tensile testing or uniaxial tension test, is one of the most commonly used tests to determine important material parameters such as Young’s modulus, yield strength, ultimate strength, elongation at break, Poisson’s ratio, and Lankford coefficients (R-values). Tension testing constitutes a foundational test in materials science and engineering, involving the…
