attached is a past paper question in which we werent given the solution. a solution with clear steps and justification would be massively appreciated thankyou.
in this scenario, when it comes to matrix iterations it states this system is assumed out of phase. why is this?
Q1. A curved beam of a circular cross section of diameter "d" is fixed at one end and
subjected to a concentrated load P at the free end (Fig. 1). Calculate stresses at points
A and C. Given: P = 800 N, d = 30 mm, a 25 mm, and b = 15 mm.

- You are working as an engineer in a bearing systems design company. The flow of lubricant inside a hydrodynamic bearing (p = 0.001 kg m-1 s-1) can be approximated as a parallel, steady, two-dimensional, incompressible flow between two parallel plates. The top plate, representing the moving part of the bearing, travels at a constant speed, U, while the bottom plate remains stationary (Figure Q1). The plates are separated by a distance of 2h = 1 cm and are W = 20 cm wide. Their length is L = 10 cm.
