Chapter 4.6, Problem 4.75P
The 40-ft-long A-36 steel rails on a train track are laid with a small gap between them to allow for thermal expansion. Determine the required gap δ so that the rails just touch one another when the temperature is increased from T1 = −20°F to T2 = 90°F. Using this gap, what would be the axial force in the rails if the temperature rises to T3 = 110°F? The cross-sectional area of each rail is 5.10 in2.

The 40-ft-long A-36 steel rails on a train track are laid with a small gap between them to allow for thermal expansion. Determine the required gap d so that the rails just touch one another when the temperature is increased from T1 = -20F to T2 = 90F. Using this gap, what would be the axial force in the rails if the temperature rises to T3 = 110F? The cross-sectional area of each rail is 5.10 in2.
The center rod CD of the assembly is heated from T₁ = 30 °C to T₂ = 165
°C using electrical resistance heating. At the lower temperature T₁ the gap
between C and the rigid bar is 0.7 mm. Rods AB and EF are made of
steel, and each has a cross-sectional area of 125 mm². CD is made of
aluminum and has a cross-sectional area of 375 mm². Est = 200 GPa,
Eal = 70 GPa, and cal = 23 (10-) /°C.
