Answer:
Problem 1.5
Find the relationship between the thickness t and the length l for a
microcantilever such that the stiffness ratio at the free end 1 is
equal to n (n > 1), and that the axial stiffness at the same point is less than a
fixed value of
Answer:
Problem 1.6
A curved beam of rectangular cross-section defined by and
has a radius of Determine the position of the neutral axis
by calculating the eccentricity e.
Answer:
for 0.6 < R/w < 8
for R/w > 8
relative error between the first and second predictions: 0.1%
Problem 1.7
Find the z-direction deflection at point 1 for the free-fixed structure of
Fig. 1.33. Known are l, R and The constant cross-section is square and
the material is homogeneous with known E and G.
