Or A thick steel cylinder which has an inner diameter of 1 m is subjected to an internal pressure of 10 MPa. Calculate the wall thickness if the maximum shearing is not to exceed 40 MPa. A thin-walled member 1.2 m long has the cross-section shown in Fig. Q 13(a). Determine the maximum torque which can be carried by the section if the angle of twist is limited to 10". What will be the maximum shear stress when this maximum torque is applied? G = 80 GN/m?.

(a) () (a) (>) www.examquestionpaper.in An infinite beam on a Winkler foundation has the following properties: = 0.3 kN/mm/mm, E = 200 GPa. A concentrated load of intensity 25 kN is applied to the beam. Compute the maximum deflection, shear force, bending moment and slope acting in the beam. The beam cross-section is I-shaped (flanges: 100 x 10 mm and web 150 x 8mm). Or Determine the deflection of the built-in beam on an elastic foundation shown in Figure Q14(b) using finite difference method. The beam is subjected to a udl of intensity, p = 250 kN/m. L = 4m. Take modulus of the foundation as 2.0 MPa, EI = 550 x 10? Nmm®. Compare the results assuming the node interval, h as 2m and Im. Figure Q. 14 (b) ‘A rectangular beam of 230mm x 350mm of 3m long carries a central concentrated load of 50 KN. The stress strain curve of the beam material is given by ¢=7002***. Determine the maximum stress induced in the beam and compare the results when the stress strain curve is a linear one. Or A solid circular shaft of 90mm radius is subjected to a twisting couple so that the outer 40mm deep sheet of the shaft yields plastically. If the yield stress in shear for the shaft material is 150 MPa, determine the value of twisting couple applied and associated angle of twist. G = 80 GPa. o ¢ oe
