Explanation of Solution

Box offers cloud data storage services of 50 GB. Consumers can access their files from anywhere. User can create accounts on Box easily and collaborate with co-workers by using computer, phones, or any other device with internet access.

An agile MIS infrastructure helps in supporting the changes in business needs with time. An agile MIS consists of software, hardware and telecommunications equipment which provides the foundation to support organization’s goals. An agile MIS can provide following characteristics for Box:

Accessibility: An agile MIS can support BOX’s business by defining its accessibility at various level. It can help define how users will access, view or perform operational functions.

Availability: An agile MIS will make sure that the application is available to users during different time frames and there is no downtime for the application.

Maintainability: In case of any environmental changes, agile MIS will make sure that BOX’s system transforms in timely manner to support those changes.

Portability: An agile MIS will make sure that BOX is able to operate on different software platforms and devices.

Reliability: An MIS will make sure that Box operate correctly and there are not data integrity issues.

scalability: An MIS will help the BOX’s business to grow with the increased number of users and increased requirements of storage capacity.

Usability: An agile MIS will make the BOX’s application easy to use, efficient and satisfactory for the user.

What is the difference between true stress/strain and engineering stess/strain? And how do I calculate them?
A rotating shaft of 20 mm diameter is simply supported. The shaft is loaded with a transverse load of 10 kN as shown in the figure. The shaft is made from AISI 1095 hot-rolled steel. The surface has been machined. The shaft operate at temperature T = 450 °C. Consider a reliability factor of 95%. Determine (a) Calculate the reaction forces R, and R₂ (2 points) (b) Draw the shear force and bending moment diagrams and determine the maximum bending moment and shear force. (6 points) 200 mm 20 mm 10,000 N -50 mm- A Not to scale. (c) Determine the critical location of the shaft and the maximum effective stresses. (3 points) (d) Calculate the safety factor against yielding. Does the shaft undergo local yielding? (2 points) (e) Determined the endurance limit, adjusted as necessary with Marin factors. (12 points) (f) Calculate the fatigue factor of safety based on achieving infinite life. (2 points) (g) If the fatigue factor of safety is less than 1 (hint: it should be for this problem), then…
