Question: [ A ] is a second order tensor ( matrix ) . Express the following expressions in the index notation: [ A ] , [

[A] is a second order tensor (matrix). Express the following expressions in the index notation:
[A],[A][A]T,[A][A]
Consider a cantilever beam of thickness "t", depth "2c" and length "L"(L>>c,L>>t,2D
plane stress problem), subjected to a uniform pressure (force per unit area 0) on the top
surface as shown in the figure. Following solution states are proposed for this problem. It is
required to:
11=0x22c{x22c2-3x122c2-35}
22=02{-1+3x22c-x232c3}
12=-30x14c{1-x22c2}
(a) Check if the above solution states satisfy the equilibrium, stress boundary and geometry
compatibility conditions for this problem.
(b) In your undergraduate mechanics of materials class you had learned under simple beam
theory that the bending stress and shear stress have the following forms
11==Mx2I and 12==VQIt, where I is the area moment of inertia, Q is the first
moment of the part of the cross-sectional area, M and V are bending moment and shear force
at the cross section. Check if the solution state corresponds to the simple beam theory
formulations.
