Question
A rigid bar AB is pinned at end A and is
supported by a wire CD and loaded by a force P at
end B (see figure). The wire is made of high-strength
steel having a modulus of elasticity E = 210 GPa and
yield stress σY =820 MPa. The length of the wire is
L =1.0 m, and its diameter is d =3 mm. The stress strain
diagram for the steel is defined by the modified
power law, as
σ =Eε 0<σ≤σy
σ = σy[Eε/σy] σ≥σy
(a) Assuming n = 0.2, calculate the displacement
δB at the end of the bar due to the load P. Take
values of P from 2.4 kN to 5.6 kN in increments
of 0.8 kN.
(b) Plot a load-displacement diagram showing P
versus δB.
