A bronze bar 3 m long with a cross sectional area of 320 mm' is placed between two rigid walls as shown in Fig. P-265. At a temperature of -20°C, the gap A = 25 mm. Find the temperature at which the compressive stress in the bar will be 35 MPa. Use a = 18.0 x 10* m/(m-°C) and E = 80 GPa. L-3m Figure P-265

A tensile test was performed on a metal specimen with a diameter of 1 2 inch and a gage length (the length over which the elongation is measured) of 4 inches. The dam were plotted on a load-displacement graph. P vs. L. A best-fit line was drawn through the points, and the slope of the straight-line portion was calculated to be P/L =1392 kips/in. What is the modulus of elasticity?

Compare the engineering and true secant elastic moduli for the natural rubber in Example Problem 6.2 at an engineering strain of 6.0. Assume that the deformation is all elastic.

The data in Table 1.5.3 were obtained from a tensile test of a metal specimen with a rectangular cross section of 0.2011in.2 in area and a gage length (the length over which the elongation is measured) of 2.000 inches. The specimen was not loaded to failure. a. Generate a table of stress and strain values. b. Plot these values and draw a best-fit line to obtain a stress-strain curve. c. Determine the modulus of elasticity from the slope of the linear portion of the curve. d. Estimate the value of the proportional limit. e. Use the 0.2 offset method to determine the yield stress.
