Chapter 8, Problem 8.3.5P
An inflatable structure used by a traveling circus has the shape of a half-circular cylinder with closed ends (see figure). The fabric and plastic structure is inflated by a small blower and has a radius of 40 ft when fully inflated. A longitudinal scam runs the entire length of the "ridge" of the structure.
If the longitudinal scam along the ridge tears open when it is subjected to a tensile load of 540 pounds per inch of seam, what is the factor of safety n against tearing when the internal pressure is 0,5 psi and the structure is fully inflated?

If the contact pressure between the rope and sheave is 2.97 N.=/sq.mm. and used to raise the load of 2T=450 kN. Calculate the sheave diameter if the nominal diameter of the wire rope is 4 cm.
3. The rail roads are usually made of steel material segments with a 10 m long. Between each segments
there are some spacing for the contraction and expansion because of temperature differences.
a. When the temperature of certain region is changes between -20.0 °C and 30 °C how much
space they should put between each segment?
b. If the segments are originally in contact, what is the stress in them at 30 °C?
