Assignment 2 Q.1_A.15mm thick and 50 mm wide plate made of steel (160 BHN) is subjected to axial force of 10 KN. If 2 hole of diameter 10 mm is made at the centre of the plate, determine (a) The endurance strength if notch sensitivity factor for steel is 0.85. (b) Ifthe hole is to be replaced by an ellipse, determine the major and minor diameters of ellipse and its, orientation to have 25% more endurance strength as compared to (0a above (c) Determine the maximum stress induced in the plate if the plate is having a hole (d) ) Determine the maximum stress induced in the plate if the plate is having an ellipse. Q.2 A component in an aircraft flap actuator can be modelled as cylindrical bar subjected to an axial force of 8 kN, a bending moment of 55 N-m and a torsional moment of 30 N-m. A 20 mm solid bar of Aluminium having ultimate tensile strength 591 MPa and yield strength $42 MPa and yield point strength in shear 271 MPa, is recommended for its use. Determine the factor of safety available as per different theories of failure.
