A reinforced concrete beam with b=300mm, h=670mm,and d=600 mm, having a span of 7.3 m, can be considered as a fully fixed at the left support and simply supported at the right end. It is reinforced for positive bending with 8-16 and for negative bending with 4816 plus 418. Calculate the collapse load using the plastic hinge method. (20%)

1. (20 pts) Plot the pulse and the FFT for a pulse with the following properties at x=0 and x=10 cm. f=2 MHz m=3 Ncyc=2, 6, 20 po 1 MPa (source pressure) x=10 cm (propagates in a Newtonian fluid for 10 cm as a plane wave-not a sound beam) a=0.5 dB/(MHz cm) Consider 3 types of waves: sine, square, and sawtooth. (square and sawtooth only for grad students) Observe your plots and draw some conclusions. Discuss any possible issues you encounter. 2. (20 pts) We have the following 3 ultrasonic transducers: a. Focused 1 MHz, 2.54 cm diameter, 5.08 cm focus b. Focused 3 MHz, 2.54 cm diameter, 5.08 cm focus c. Unfocused 0.1 MHz, 2.54 cm diameter The transducers are operating in water (c=1486 m/s). I. Plot the axial field for all transducers II. Plot the focal transverse field for the focused transducers and the transverse field at the Rayleigh distance (R_0) and at 2R_0 for the unfocused. III. Assume source pressure of 0.1 MPa, and find the acoustic pressure in MPa at the location (r=0, z=4.5…
