Textbook Question
Chapter 18, Problem 9RQ
Assume a variable R contains a single number. Write a short piece of MATLAB code that will:
- Generate the message: The The square root of xxxx is yyyy, if R is nonnegalive.
- If R is negative, the code should generate the message: R is negative. The square root of xxxx is YYYYi.
The value of R should be substituted for XXXX, and the value of the square root of the magnitude of R should be substituted for YYYY. Both numbers should be displayed with three decimal places.

- A strain gauge rosette that is attached to the surface of a stressed component gives 3 readings (ɛa = A, b = B, &c = C). If the strain gauge rosette is of the D° type (indicating the angle between each of the gauges), construct a Mohr's Strain Circle overleaf. You should assume that gauge A is aligned along the x-axis. Using the Mohr's Strain Circle calculate the: (i) principal strains (ε1, 2)? (ii) principal angles (1, 2)? You should measure these anticlockwise from the y-axis.
