UNIT I STRESS AND STRAIN

Part - A
1) Define modulus of elasticity and modulus of rigidity? (May/June 2016)
(Apr/May2014)
Modulus of elasticity (or) Young’s Modulus :
When a body is stressed within its elastic limit the ratio of tensile stress to the
corresponding tensile strain is constant. This ratio is known as young’s Modulus
(or) Modulus of elasticity
Young’s Modulus (or) E=
Modulus of elasticity
ww Modulus of rigidity (or) Shear Modulus :

E=

2) Explain upper yield point, low er yield point and plastic range in a stress-
points. n
strain curve. For what type of steel do you expect upper and low er yield
(Apr/May2014) (May/June 2016)
Beyond the elastic limit the material enters into plastic range and et
removal of load does not return to the spectrum to its original dimensions thus
subjecting itself to a permanent deformation on applying further load the
specimen curve reaches upper yield point (y). Beyond point y the load decreases
into increase in strain upto the point called lower yield point mild steel.

3) What is meant by poisson’s ratio? Which material has the higher value of
poisson’s ratio? (Nov/Dec 2014) (Nov/Dec 2015)
If a body is stressed within the elastic limit the lateral strain bears a
constant ratio to the linear strain is known as poisson’s ratio.
𝑙𝑎𝑡𝑒𝑟𝑎𝑙 𝑠𝑡𝑟𝑎𝑖𝑛
Poisson’s Ratio, µ =
𝑙𝑖𝑛𝑒𝑎𝑟 𝑠𝑡𝑟𝑎𝑖𝑛
4) Define Bulk modulus. (Nov/Dec 2014)

The ratio of direct stress to the corresponding volumetric strain is found
to be constant upto elastic limit. This elastic constant is called “ Bulk Modulus ”.
Its is denoted by letter ‘K’.

7) What is meant by factor of safety? (Apr/May2015)

It is defined as a ratio of ultimate tensile stress to the permissible stress.
𝑈𝐿𝑇𝐼𝑀𝐴𝑇𝐸 𝑆𝑇𝑅𝐸𝑆𝑆
Factor of safety =
𝑃𝐸𝑅𝑀𝐼𝑆𝑆𝐼𝐵𝐿𝐸 𝑆𝑇𝑅𝐸𝑆𝑆
8) Define Resilience.
(Apr/May2015)
The strain energy stored by a body within elastic limit when loaded externally is
called Resilience.
10

9) Define Stress and Strain. ( AU Oct 1997)

When an external force acts on a body, it undergoes deformation. At
the same time the body resists deformation. The magnitude of the resisting force
is numerically equal to the applied force. This internal resisting force per unit
area is called stress.
Stress = Force/Area
σ = P/A (unit is N/mm2)
Strain :
When a body is subjected to an external force, there is some change
of dimension in the body. Numerically the strain is equal to the ratio of change in
ww length to the original length of the body.

Strain = Change in length/Original length
w.E e = ∂L/L
10) What is mean by thin cylinders and types of stress in a thin cylindrical
asy
vessel subjected to internal pressure?
If the thickness of the wall of the cylinder vessel is less than 1/15 to 1/20
En
of its internal diameter, the cylinder vessel is known as thin cylinder.
gin
11) What is mean by circumferential stress (or hoop stress) and longitudinal
stress?
The stress acting along thee eri
circumference of the cylinder
is
ng.
called circumferential stress (or hoop stress) whereas the stress acting
along the length of the cylinder is known as longitudinal stress
Circumferential stress, f1 = pd / 2t
Longitudinal stress, f2= pd / 4t

12. What is compound bar?
A composite bar composed of two or more different materials joined
together such that the system is elongated or compressed in a single unit.
13. Define: shear stress and shear strain.
The two equal and opposite force act tangentially on any cross sectional
plane of the body tending to slide one part of the body over the other part. The
stress induced is called shear stress and the corresponding strain is known as
shear strain.
14. Define: Longitudinal strain and Lateral strain.
Longitudinal strain:
11

W hen a body is subjected to axial load P, there is an axial

deformation in the length of the body. The ratio of axial deformation to the
original length of the body is called lateral strain.
Longitudinal strain= Change in length/Original length
= ∂L/L
Lateral strain :
The strain at right angles to the direction of the applied load is called
lateral strain.
Lateral strain= Change in breadth (depth)/Original breadth (depth)

UNIT –III DEFLECTION

PART - A
1. What are the methods for finding out the slope and deflection at a
section? (NOV/DEC 2014)
The important methods used for finding out the slope and deflection at a
section in a loaded beam are
1. Double integration method

2. Moment area method
3. Macaulay’s method
ww The first two methods are suitable for a single load, where as the last
w.E one is suitable for several loads.
2. Why moment area method is more useful, when compared
asy
with double integration? (NOV/DEC 2015)
En
Moment area method is more useful, as compared with double
gin
integration method because many problems which do not have a simple
mathematical solution can be simplified by the ending moment area method.

3. State Mohr’s theorem for slope and deflection. (APR/MAY
2015)
ng.
Mohr’s theorem-1
n
The change of slope between any two points is equal to the net area of the BMD et
between these points divided by EI.
Mohr’s theorem-2
The total deflection between any two points is equal to the moment of the area of
the BMD between these two points about the last points.
4. What are determinate beam? (NOV/DEC 2014)
The first three types of beams simply supports beam, cantilever beam, over
hanging beam are called statically determinate structures. Since they can be
48

completely analyzed by three static equations.
5. Define conjugate beam. (APR/MAY 2015)
Conjugate beam is an imaginary beam of length equal to that of original but

for which are load diagram is M/EI diagram.
6. Define the term slope. (NOV/DEC 2014)
Slope at any section is defined as an angle in radians which tangent at the

section makes with the original axis of the beam.It is the degree to which the
structural element is displaced under load.

8. Explain the Theorem for conjugate beam method?
Theorem I : “The slope at any section of a loaded beam, relative to the

original axis of the beam is equal to the shear in the conjugate beam at the
corresponding section”
49

Theorem II: “The deflection at any given section of a loaded beam,

relative to the original position is equal to the Bending moment at the
corresponding section of the conjugate beam”
9. What are the points to be worth for conjugate beam method?

1. This method can be directly used for simply supported Beam
2. In this method for cantilevers and fixed beams, artificial
constraints need to be supplied to the conjugate beam so that it
is supported in a manner consistent with the constraints of the
real beam.

UNIT IV TORSION AND SPRINGS

PART - A
1. Define pure torsion. (Nov/Dec 2014)
A shaft of circular C/S is said to be in pure torsion, when it is
subjected to equal and opposite couples only. The axis of couple coincides
with the axis of the shaft only without any bending or axial twist. Due to
this torsion, the state of stress at any point in the C/S is one of the pure
shear.
2. What is torque? (Nov/Dec 2014)
In the revolving shafts of motors, engines or turbines, a turning
ww force is always is applied to transmit by rotation. This turning force is

applied at suitable distance from the axis of the shaft. The product of this
w.E
turning force and distance of its application from the centre of the shaft is
known as twisting moment or torque.A shaft of circular C/S is said to be in
asy
torsion, when it is subjected to torque.

7) Draw and describe the graphical method for solving the principal stress
problems for various cases.
GRAPHICAL METHOD:
Case(i) A body subjected to two mutually perpendicular unequal like

stresses.
Like stresses means both the stresses are either tensile or compressive in
nature.
Ulllike stresses means one stress in tensile whereas other is compressive in

nature .
Consider a rectangular member of uniform cross sectional area A subjected to
ww
two unequal like stresses which is tensile in nature.
Let, V1 – Major principal tensile stress
w.EV2 – Minor principal tensile stress
asy
- Angle made by the oblique section with the minor principal axis
En
gin
e eri
ng.
Construct the circle of stresses as given below. n et
1. Draw two perpendicular lines meeting at O representing the direction of
stresses V1 and V2.
2. With O as centre, draw the concentric circles of radii OA and OB equals to
the stresses V1 and V2 to some scal.
3. Draw the line XY through O which makes an angle T with the plane of V2.
4. From O, draw the line OCD which is normal (i.e., perpendicular) to the line
XY and meeting the circles at C and D.
5. Draw DE perpendicular to OA and CF perpendicular to DE.
6. Join OF which is the resultant stress V across the plane XY.
7. From F, draw a line FG perpendicual to OD.
8. OG represents normal stress and FG represents tangential stress on the
oblique plane.
Note: For all kind of stresses it may be + ve or – ve, the construction is similar to
the above steps only the position of the point F will change.
98

The position of point F will be as follows.
1. If V1 and V2 are +ve, the point will lie in first quadrant.

2. If V1 is +ve and V2 is +ve, the point will lie in second quadrant.
3. If V1 and V2 both are -ve, the point will lie in third quadrant.
4. If V1 is +ve and V2 is -ve, the point will lie in fourth quadrant.
Note: + represents tensile stress and –ve represents compressive stresses.
Case(ii) A body subjected to two equal mutually perpendicular and unlike

principal stresses.
Consider a rectangular body subjected to two equal mutually
ww
perpendicular and unlike stresses acting as shown in fig.

1. Draw two perpendicular lines meeting at O representing the different of
stresses V1 and V2.
and V2 since the two stresses are equal magnitude. n

2. With O as centre, draw a circle of radis OA or OB equal to the stresses V1
3. Draw the line XY through O which makes an angle T with plane of V2. et
4. Draw the line OC ahich is normal to the line XY and meeting the circle at
C.
5. If we follow the same procedure as in the previous case we can get the
points D,F and G at a point C. (i.e., C, D, F and D are coincide)
6. We already know that if V1 is +ve and V2 is -ve, the point will lie in fourth
quadrant. Therefore, get the mirror image of F in fourth quadrant as shown
in fig. Note this point as F’.
7. Now, OF’ represents the intensity of stress on the oblique plane. It is
numerically equale to OF but inclined at an angle 2T to the normal.
