PROBLEM (10.38) A structural steel shaft of specific weight , diameter d, and elastic modulus E,
is supported by roller bearings at its ends A and B (Fig. P10.38). Determine the maximum permissible
length L for this shaft.
Requirement: The deflection of the shaft due to its own weight per unit length w at the midspan is limited
to vmax .
Assumption: Bearings act as simple supports.
Given: vmax =5 mm,
d=75 mm,
g=9.81 kg/s2,

vmax =5wL /384EI

= 7860 kg/m3

E=200 GPa
