 Constant Load and Cross-Sectional Area

 Sign Convention: the force and

displacement to be positive if they cause
tension and elongation; whereas a
negative force and displacement will
cause compression and contraction

 Principle of Superposition :
 By subdividing the loading into components

 Requirements:
 The loading must be linearly related to the stress or
displacement that is to be determined
 The loading must not significantly change the original
geometry or configuration of the member

P is replaced by two of its components, P = P1 + P2

  Statically Indeterminate Axially Loaded Member
 From the free-body diagram, equilibrium requires

 This type of problem is called statically

indeterminate, since the equilibrium equations are
not sufficient to determine the two reactions on
the bar
 an equation that specifies the conditions for
displacement is referred to as a compatibility or
kinematic condition

 the above equation can be written as

 Example

 consider the bar shown below. The internal axial forces "P" are
determined by the method of sections for each segment.

 the displacement of end A relative to end D is determined from
