Determine how much (a) axial tensile load, and (b) axial compressive load can be applied to the cylinder before yielding commences according to (i) the maximum shear stress theory and (i) maximum strain energy theory. The yield stress of the material in simple tension is 240M Pa, Assume that the radial stress in the wall of the cylinder is zer0, Question 2 (20] Using the second Castigliano theorem find the supporting reaction at the support B and plot the bending moment and shear force diagrams, ‘The beam has a flexural stiffness EU. M=10kNm 7 fe = —— .. Figure 1: Question 3 (20) A solid circular shaft shaft is subjected to pure torsion and the material is elastic perfectly plastic with a yield stress in shear of 152M Pa. When the stress is at one third of the radius from the centre of the shaft reaches the yield stress, determine ‘ain on the outer surface. Also find the ratio of the torque carried in GPa the shear st the above conditions to the maximum elastic torque for the shaft. G = DUT/PT/09 2 SMAT402 2009 Mid Year Supp. Exam. Question 4 [20] Consider the element, Figure 3, which is bounded by radial lines and, subtending the angle 6@ at the origin and circular ares at radii r and r + dr respectively. Consider equilibrium and resolve the stresses in the tangential direction, show that in this case, the equilibrium equation can be written in the following form: 1 Ac re ir 1800, O70 | 7 5 gg r ie ecca cats Figure 2: Question 5 (20) ‘The hand press shown in the figure has the following dimensions: AB = 200mm, BC = 200mm, BD = 240mm.
