Problem 2(60 points)
It is known that plane stress condition exists at a point in the x-y plane. The strain rosette attached to this point (see figure) gives the following readings for each strain gauge:
a=450(10-6),b=300(10-6), and c=150(10-6)
The gauge a is orientated along x-axis. Futhremore, it is known that x=54.4MPa and y=31.32 MPa at this point
a) Determine x,y, and xy at this point (20 pts ).
b) Determine E,G, and U at this point, assuming it is made of an isotropic, linear elastic material (20 pts).
c) Determine the complete stress and strain matrix at this point (10 pts).
d) If this location is the critical point in the structure, what is the safety factor of the structure based on Tresca criterion? The yield stress Sy for the structure is 60 MPa (10 pts).
