1. An element of graphite-reinforced composite is completely dry and is constrained against any dimensional changes in the 1 and 2 directions, but it is free to expand in the 3 direction. The element absorbs 1.5% of its dry weight in the form of moisture. (a) What is the strain in the 3 direction as a result of the moisture absorption? Why is this strain different from the value given by B3AM? (b) What stresses develop in the element? Assume that moisture absorption does not influence the material properties.
