Solution: I1 = 10+5+7=32, I2 = -(50+35+70) +9 +4 +16 = -126, I3 = 350 -48 -40 -80
-63 = 119;  – 222 -126 -119 = 0. A trial and error solution gives  -= 13.04.

1-2 A 5-cm. diameter solid shaft is simultaneously subjected to an axial load of 80 kN
and a torque of 400 Nm.
a. Determine the principal stresses at the surface assuming elastic behavior.
b. Find the largest shear stress.
Solution: a. The shear stress, , at a radius, r, is  = sr/R where sis the shear stress at the
surface R is the radius of the rod. The torque, T, is given by T = ∫2πtr2dr = (2πs /R)∫r3dr
= πsR3/2. Solving for = s, s = 2T/(πR3) = 2(400N)/(π0.0253) = 16 MPa
The axial stress is .08MN/(π0.0252) = 4.07 MPa
1,2 = 4.07/2 ± [(4.07/2)2 + (16/2)2)]1/2 = 1.029, -0.622 MPa
b. the largest shear stress is (1.229 + 0.622)/2 = 0.925 MPa

A long thin-wall tube, capped on both ends is subjected to internal pressure. During
elastic loading, does the tube length increase, decrease or remain constant?
Solution: Let y = hoop direction, x = axial direction, and z = radial direction. –
ex = e2 = (1/E)[ - ( 3 + 1)] = (1/E)[2 - (22)] = (2/E)(1-2)
Since u < 1/2 for metals, ex = e2 is positive and the tube lengthens.

4 A solid 2-cm. diameter rod is subjected to a tensile force of 40 kN. An identical
rod is subjected to a fluid pressure of 35 MPa and then to a tensile force of 40 kN. Which
rod experiences the largest shear stress?
Solution: The shear stresses in both are identical because a hydrostatic pressure has no
shear component.

1-5 Consider a long thin-wall, 5 cm in diameter tube, with a wall thickness of 0.25
mm that is capped on both ends. Find the three principal stresses when it is loaded under
a tensile force of 40 N and an internal pressure of 200 kPa.
Solution: x = PD/4t + F/(πDt) = 12.2 MPa
y = PD/2t = 2.0 MPa
y = 0

the x-axis and gauge C is parallel to the y-axis. The third gage, B, is at 30° to gauge A.
When the part is loaded the gauges read
Gauge A 3000x10-6

Find the principal stresses in the part of problem 1-6 if the elastic modulus of the part is
205 GPa and Poissons’s ratio is 0.29.
Solution: e3 = 0 = (1/E)[0 -  (1+2)], 1 = 2
e1 = (1/E)(1 -  1); 1 = Ee1/(1-) = 205x109(3530x10-6)/(1-.292) = 79 MPa

Assuming that E = is 68 GPa and  = 0.30, find z.
Solution: ey = (1/E)(y-y), ex = (1/E)(x – ey – x). Solving for x,
x = [E/(1-)]ey + ey). Similarly, y = [E/(1-)](ey + ex). Substituting into
ez = (1/E)(-y-y) = (- /E)(E/(1-)[ey + ey+ ey + ex ) = [-(+)/(1-)](ey + ey) =

250 MPa and 3 = -200 MPa. Assuming that E = is 205 GPa and  = 0.29 find the stored
elastic energy per volume.
Solution: w = (1/2)(1e1 + 2e2 + 3e3). Substituting e1 = (1/E)[1 - (2 + 3)],
e2 = (1/E)[2 -2 (32 + 1)]2 and e3 = (1/E)[3 - (1 + 2)],

1-12 A slab of metal is subjected to plane-strain deformation (e2=0) such that 1 = 40
ksi and 3 = 0. Assume that the loading is elastic and
that E = is 205 GPa and  = 0.29 (Note the mixed units.) Find
a. the three normal strains.
b. the strain energy per volume.
Solution: w = (1/2)(1e1 + 2e2 + 3e3) = (1/2)(1e1 + 0 + 0) = 1e1/2
1 = 40ksi(6.89MPa/ksi) = 276 MPa
0 = e2 = (1/E)[2 - 1], 2 = 1 = 0.29x276 = 80 MPa
e1 = (1/E)(1 - 2) =(1/205x103)[276-.29(80)] = 0.00121
w = (276x106)(0.00121)/2 = 167 kJ/m3

Chapter 2

a) If the principal stresses on a material with a yield stress in shear of 200 MPa are 2
= 175 MPa and 1 = 350 MPa., what is the stress, 3, at yielding according to the Tresca
criterion?
b) If the stresses in (a) were compressive, what tensile stress 3 must be applied to cause
yielding according to the Tresca criterion?
Solution: a) 1 - 3 = 2k, 3 = 2k – 1 = 400 - 350 = 50 MPa.
