Question

A) Calculate the stress in each link when a force of 600 lbs is applied to the rigid element AF, employing manual calculations and finite element methods.

B) Determine the corresponding deflection at point A, manually applying the finite element penalty method to model and solve the constraints effectively.

Available Data:

  • The links BC and DE are made of steel.
  • Each link has dimensions of 1/2 inch in width and 1/4 inch in thickness.
  • Modulus of elasticity (E): 29 x 10^6 psi.

Instructions: For this problem, manual calculation is crucial. Utilize the finite element method with the penalty approach to handle boundary conditions and constraints effectively. This method involves incorporating penalty factors into the system equations to enforce the constraints strictly.
