A tri-metallic bar is uniformly compressed by an axial force P = 40 kN applied through a rigid end plate (see figure). The bar consists of a circular steel core surrounded by a brass and copper tubes. The steel core has a diameter of 30 mm, the brass tube has outer diameter of 45 mm, and the copper tube has outer diameter of 60 mm. the corresponding moduli of elasticity are E, = 210 GPa, E, = 100 GPa, and E= 120 GPa. Copper tube Brass tube P= 40 kN Steel core 30 mm 45 mm 60 mm
