A very thin rectangular plate (see figure (a)) is subjected to a biaxial plane stress state (σx, σy). The width and height of the plate are b = 7.5 [in] and h = 2.5 [in], respectively. The measures show that the strains in the (x, y) directions are εxx = 2.85x10−4 and εyy = −1.90x10−4, respectively. Figure (b) shows a 2D front view of the plate. Calculate i) The increment ΔL = Lfinal - Linitial in the length of the diagonal Od. ii) The change ΔΦ = Φfinal - Φinitial of the angle formed between the diagonal Od and the x axis. iii) The change ΔΨ = Ψfinal - Ψinitial of the angle formed between the diagonal Od and the y axis. Note: remember that in a plane stress state we have σz = τxz = τyz = 0 and if it is also bi-axial we have τyx = 0.

Calculate
i) The increment ΔL = Lfinal - Linitial in the length of the diagonal Od.
ii) The change ΔΦ = Φfinal - Φinitial of the angle formed between the diagonal Od and the x axis.
iii) The change ΔΨ = Ψfinal - Ψinitial of the angle formed between the diagonal Od and the y axis.
Note: remember that in a plane stress state we have σz = τxz = τyz = 0 and if it is also bi-axial
we have τyx = 0.
