Question: Bar B E of the pin - connected system is made of an aluminum alloy with an elastic modulus E B E = 7 0

Bar BE of the pin-connected system is made of an aluminum alloy with an elastic
modulus EBE=70GPa, a cross-sectional area ABE=300mm2, and a coefficient of
thermal expansion BE=22.510-6C. Bar AD is made of a hardened carbon steel with
an elastic modulus EAD=210GPa, cross-sectional area AAD=1200mm2, and a
coefficient of thermal expansion AD=11.910-6C. Bar CDE is rigid. The temperature
of the system was originally 40C but has decreased to 15C. Please determine the
displacement at point E.
