Review and Summary 6.1 Stress in curved beams Deformation analysis---------------stress and strain distribution

(1) Any transverse plane section (containing C) remain plane (2) A neutral surface must exist in the member(R=R) (3) Elongation of the arc JKJK, =r-r

y y = = r r Ry The normal strain x does not vary linearly with y. x =

The distance R from the center of curvature C to the neutral surface is defined by the relation

R=A

 Example 1
(1) Determine the distance e between the centroid and the neutral axis of the cross section. ( r = 100mm, b = 50mm, h = 25mm ) A bh h R= = = r2 dA r2 bdr r2 dr ,

(2) If M=500N m, determine the largest tensile and compressive stress

max = min

M ( r2 R ) = 88.5Mpa Aer2

M ( r1 R) = = 104.7 Mpa Aer1

Knowing that the allowable compressive stress is 50Mpa, determine the largest force P which may be applied. (1) Force and couple at centroid D of the cross P=? M=(0.110m)P (2) Superposition: the total stress at cross-section a-a is

(4) The largest compressive stress will occur at point A, where r=0.030m using

all = 50MPa we obtain P=8.55kN
