ENGR 476 Mechanics of Materials II Assignment 6 Due on Monday, Mar 17, 2014, before class starts 1.

. The load-deformation diagram shown has been drawn from data obtained during the tensile test of a 20 mm diameter rod of an aluminum alloy. Knowing that the deformation was measured using a 400 mm gage length, determine (a) the modulus of resilience of the alloy, (b) the modulus of toughness of the alloy.

2. Using E = 200 GPa, determine (a) the strain energy of the steel rod ABC when P = 35 kN, (b) the corresponding strain energy density in portions AB and BC of the rod.

3. In the truss shown, all members are made of aluminum and have uniform cross-sectional area shown. Using E = 72 GPa, determine strain energy of the truss for the loading shown.

4. Using E = 200 GPa, determine the strain energy due to bending for the steel beam and loading shown.

5. Rod AC is made of aluminum and is subjected to a torque T applied at C. Knowing that G = 73 GPa and that portion BC of the rod is hollow and has an inner diameter of 16 mm, determine the strain energy of the rod for a maximum shearing stress of 120 MPa.

6. The 48-kg collar G is released from rest in the position shown and is stopped by plate BDF that is attached to the 20-mm-diameter steel rod CD and to the 15-mm-diameter steel rods AB and EF. Knowing that for the grade of steel used all = 180 MPa and E= 200 GPa, determine the largest allowable distance h.
