Students have asked these similar questions
You work for an off-shore wind turbine manufacturer and have been asked to review data
from the support structure development team. The cost of the high strength steel
currently used in the support structure has increased significantly in the last 12 months so
the development team have manufactured some components to an identical design using
a cheaper grade of structural steel. Company policy states that the critical tensile stress
must be 30% more than the expected maximum in service stress of 420MPa. Given the
information below, what is critical tensile stress of the cheaper grade of structural steel
and would you recommend its use in the wind turbine support structure?
Alternate Steel Analysis Report:
• Detected maximum internal flaw size = 1.0 μm,
● Specific surface energy 1.3 J/m2,
● Youngs Modulus = 210GPa
Select one or more:
a.590 MPa
b.Yes, would recommend
c.417 MPa
d.13.2 MPa
e.No, would not recommend
f.18.6 MPa

- PLEASE SOLVE THREE GIVEN SUB-PARTS i,ii,iii of the question. Accurate and exact. (i) State one mechanical material property and one non-mechanical material property that would be important in the design of a treadle. For each material property, state the units for that property and give a brief explanation of its importance in engineering terms to the design of the treadle. (ii) Propose a suitable material for the treadle. Explain your reasoning for your material selection, providing clear substantiating evidence of the materials suitability to the treadle. Your evidence should relate to the two material properties given as your answer to Part (i), but can also introduce other important factors. Provide sources of your evidence, which can be taken from EduPack or elsewhere.
