"The most important additions to the first edition include: 1, A more complete discussion of problems dealing with bending, compression, and torsion of slender and thin-walled structures. This kind of structure finds at present a wide application in airplane constructions, and it was considered desirable co include in the new edition more problems from that field. 2. A chapter on plastic defor mations dealing with bending land torsion of beams and shafts beyond the elastic mit and, also with plastic fow of material in thick-walled cylinders subjected to high internal pressures. 3. A considerable amount of new material of an experi- ‘mental character pertaining to the behavior of structural ‘materials at high temperatures and. to the fatigue of metals lunder reversal of strestes, especially in those cases where fatigue is combined with high stress concentration. 4 Important additions to be found in the portion of the book dealing with beams on elastic foundations; in the chap. ters on the theory of curved bars and theory of plates and shells; and in the chapter on stress concentration, in which some recent results of photoelastic tests have been included. Since the appearance of the first edition of this book, the Author's three volumes of a more advanced character, “Theory Of Elasticity,” “Theory of Blastic Stability,” and “Theory of Plates and Shells” have been published, Reference to these iv PREFACE. TO THE SECOND EDITION books are made in various places in this volume, expecially in those cases where only final results are given’ without © complete mathematical derivation Icis hoped thar with the additions mentioned above the book will give an up-to-date presentation of the subject of strength of materials which may be useful both to graduate students interested in engineering mechanics and to design engineers dealing with complicated problems of stress analysis. Srepuen P, Tawostexo Taw get ¥ PREFACE TO THE FIRST EDITION ‘The second volume of Tux Staeworit or MareRtats is written principally for advanced students, research engincers, and designers. The writer has endeavored to prepare-a book which contains the new developments that are of practical importance in the fields of strength of materials and theory of, elasticity. Complete derivations of problems of practical interest are given in most cases. In only a comparatively few cases of the more complicated problems, for which solutions ‘cannot be derived without going beyond the limit ofthe usual standard in engineering mathematics, the final results only are given. In such cases, the practical applications ofthe results are discussed, and, at the same time, references are given to the literature in which the complete derivation of the solution ‘can be found. In the first chapter, more complicated problems of bending of prismatical bars are considered. The important problems ‘of bending of bars on an elastic foundation are discussed in, detail and applications of the theory in investigating stresses in rails and stresses in tubes are given. The application of trigonometric series in investigating problems of bending is also discussed, and important approximate formulas. for combined direct and transverse loading are derived, In the second chapter, the theory of curved bars is de- ped in detail. ‘The application of this theory co machine design is illustrated by an analysis of the stresses, for instance, in hooks, fy wheels, links of chains, piston rings, and curved pipes. ‘The third chapter contains the theory of bending of plates. ‘The cases of deflection of plates to a cylindrical shape and the symmetrical bending of circular plates are discussed in detail and practical applications are given. Some data regarding the bending of rectangular plates under uniform load are also given, ¥ PREFACE TO THE FIRST EDITION In the fourth chapter are discussed problems of stress distribution in parts having the form of a generated body and symmetrically loaded. These problems are especially important for designers of vessels submitted to internal pressure and of rotating machinery. Tensile and bending stresses in thin-walled vessels stresses in thick-walled cylinders, shrinkfit stresses, and also dynamic stresses produced in rotors and rotating dises by inertia forces and the stresses due to non-uniform heating are given attention. ‘The fifth chapter contains the theory of sidewise buckling of compressed members and thin plates due to elastic in stability. These problems are of utmost importance in many modern structures where the cross sectional dimensions are being reduced to a minimum due to the use of stronger ma- terials and the desire to decrease weight. In many cases, failure of an engineering structure isto be atributed to clastic instability and not to lack of strength on the part of the material. In the sixth chapter, the irregularities in stress distribution produced by sharp variations in eross sections of bars caused by holes and grooves are considered, and the practical sig- nifcance of stress concentration is discussed. ‘The photo- elastic method, which has proved very useful in investigating stress concentration, is also described. The membrane anal- ‘ogy in torsional problems and its application in investigating stress concentration at reentrant corners, as in rolled sections and in tubular sections, is explained. Circular shalts of variable diameter are also discussed, and an electrical analogy is used in explaining local stresses at the fillets in such shaft. In the last chapter, che mechanical properties of materials are discussed. Attention is directed eo the general principles rather than to a description of established, standardized methods of testing materials and manipulating apparatus. The results of modern investigations of the mechanical properties of single crystals and the practical significance of this information are described. Such subjects a8 the fatigue of metals and the strength of metals at high temperature are - decided practical interest in modern machine design. STaae probleme are tented more partly with reference to new developments in these fields. Tn concluding, various strength theories are considered. ‘The important subject of the relation of the theories to the method of establishing working stresses under various stress ‘conditions is developed. ‘Te was mentioned that the book was written partially for teaching purposes, and that itisintended also to be sed for ade vanced courses, ‘The writer has, in his experience, usually divided the content of the book into three courses as follows: () A couree embodying chapters 1,3, and § principally for ad- vanced students interested in structural engineering, (2) A course covering chapters 2, 3, 4, and6 for students whose chief interest isin machine design. (3) A course using chapter 5 a8 a basis and accompanied by demonstrations in the material testing laboratory. The author feels that such a ‘course, which treats the fundamentals of mechanical proper: ties of materials and which establishes the relation between these properties and the working stresses used under various conditions in design, is of practical importance, and more attention should be given this sore of study in our engineering curricula, ‘The author takes this opportunity of thanking his friends who have assisted him by suggestions, reading of manuscripe and proof, particularly Messts. W. M. Coates and L. I Donnell, teachers of mathematics and mechanics in’ the Engineering College of the University of Michigan, and Mr. E, L. Everett of the Department of Engineering Research of the University of Michigan. He is indebted also to Mr. F. C. Witharm for the preparation of drawings, to Mrs. E. D, Webster for the typing of the manuscript, and to the D. Van Nostrand Company for their care in the publication of the book. PREFACE TO THE FIRST EDITION vi S.

In particular cases the arbitrary constants , B, C, and D of the solution must be determined from the known conditions at certain points, Let us consider, a an example, the case of a single concen- ‘rated load acting on an infinitely long beam (Fig. 1), eaking the origin of coordinates at the point of application of the force.

A similar eonclusion can be reached regarding couples applied to one end of the beam. ‘The conclusion regarding superposition can be readily generalized and extended to cover the case of seve al loads, Fig. 26.

In the limiting case, shown in Fig. 36, 4 in which one of the flanges disappears, it can be assumed with sufficient accuracy that the poine O coincides with the centroid of the flange and that the transverse loads should act in the vertical plane through this point in order to have simple bending.

It is only necessary to make the area of the rectangle, indicated in the figure by the dotted lines, equal to the shaded area.

This method can bways be used if the bending of the beam does not introduce Shanges in the action of the external forces. For instancey Small defections of beams by lateral loads do not change the pending moment diagrams for these loads, and superposition canibe successfully used. But if we have bending combined swith axial tension or compression, the deflection produced by the lateral loads changes the action of the axial frees, and the Jatter produce not only sxial tension or compression but also tome additional bending. In such cases, as we have seen (see ‘Are 4), there are some limitations of the method of super- position; we ean use this method only with regard to the Peeeral loads, assuming that the axial force always remains fconstant, There are other cases in which small deflections of beams may introduce considerable changes in the action of Forces, In such cases the method of superposition fails Some examples of this kind will nov be discussed TAs a frst example let us consider the bending of the cantilever 1B, Fig. 43, if during bending it comes gradually nto contact with a rigid cylindrical supporting surface 1 having a constant curvature 1/R and a horizontal tangent at IZ.

Bending of Curved Tubes.—In discussing the dis- tribution of bending stresses in curved bars (art. 11) it was assumed that the shape of the cross section remains un- changed. Such an assumption is justifiable as long as we have ‘solid bar, because the very small displacements in the plane of the cross section due to lateral contraction and ex. pansion have no substantial effect on the stress distribution. ‘The condition is very diferent, however, in the ease of a chin curved tube in bending. It is well known that curved tubes, ‘with comparatively thin walls prove to be more flexible during bending than would be expected from the usual theory of curved bars. "A consideration of the distortion of the cross section during bending is necessary in such cases. ‘Consider an clement between two adjacent cross sections of a curved round pipe (Fig. 71) which is bent by couples in the direction indicated. Since both the tensile forees at the Extensive experinental work on the Renbiity of pipe bends wat dope by BB. VD 14 NOL sh 1010 45 and Pomc ibcieny avs 96 See ino W.

This is the elongation which is considered in the bending of solid bars. The second term on the right side of eq. (8) represents the effect of the flattening of the cross section. It is evident chat this effect may beof considerable nportance. Take, for inseance, R ++ a Goin.and = o.orin. Then d/(R + 4) = 1/3,009 and the corresponding stress for a steel tube is 10,000 lbs. per sq.in. he displacement 8 Gonsdered av very small comparison with the raioe CURVED BARS 108 Hence a very small flattening of the cross section produces & subscantial decrease inthe stress at the outermost fiber ab, A. similar conclusion may be drawn forthe fiber ed on the concave side of the bend. A change in the direction of the bending moment causes « change of sign of the normal stresses and as a result, instead of a Rattening ofthe tube in the radial direction, there is a fattening in the direction perpendicular to the plane fof Fig. 71 and the fiber a, due to this Aattening, is dis. placed outward. From the same reasoning as above it may be shown that here again the fattening of the cross section produces a decrease in the stress at the most remote fibers. Te may therefore be concluded that the fibers of the tube farthest from the neutral axis do not take the share in the stresses which the ordinary theory of bending indicates. ‘This affeces the bending of the tube in the same way as a decrease in its moment of inertia. Instead of eq.
