Question: Exercise 3 . ( 4 0 % ) The two bars of the figure ( of cross section 1 0 m m 1 0 m

Exercise 3.(40%) The two bars of the figure (of cross section 10mm10mm) are initially separated by a gap of 0.15 mm . The initial temperature of 30 C is raised to 100 C FOR THE ALUMINUM BAR AB ONLY. .* there is NO external force applied but the two reactions at A and C (you cannot "Invent" one extra external load, the ONLY external input is the temperature change, and reactions at A and B are the only forces). YOU MUST (in order, complete work):
(i) Sketch a complete Free Body diagram to compute the force reactions at the rigid supports A and C because of the temperature change.
(ii) Write a complete equilibrium equation based on (i)
(iii) Sketch a complete schematics of deformations
(iv) Write a complete compatibility equation based on (iii). It must include the given material/dimensions data, just symbols is not enough. REQUIRED TO COMPUTE REACTIONS VALUES after (iv)(If done, it will not count for grade)
