bracket is 12 cm long, 6 cm wide, and 3 cm deep. The midsection has an over-
all extrusion depth of 1.6 cm and a profile sketch shown below. The hollow
cylinder has an inner radius of 1 cm, an outer radius of 2 cm, and a height
of 4 cm. The central axis of the cylinder is 12.5 cm away from the leftmost
end of the bracket. Suppose that the bracket is fixed on the left end, and is
applied by a pressure load of 60 N/cm on the inclined face of the midsec-
2
tion. Compute the deformation and stresses in the bracket using the FEA.

All dimensions are in
centimeters.

7.7 The following figure shows an S-shaped wooden block with Young’s modulus
E = 70 K N/mm and Poisson’s ratio ν = 0.3. The block has a uniform thickness
2
of 6 mm and a depth of 8 mm. It is fixed on the bottom and subjected to a sur-
face pressure of 1 N/mm on the top. Compute the deformation and stresses in
2
the block using the FEA.
