Question:

The state of strain at the point on a boom of a shop crane has components of εx= 250(0-6), εy= 300(10-6), and γxy= -180(10-6). Use the strain transformation equations to determine 

(a) The in-plane principal strains 

(b) The maximum in-plane shear strain and average normal strain. In each case, specify the orientation of the element and show how the strains deform the element within the x€“y plane.
