Q Marks
A composite shaft ABCD, rigidly attached at is made of three different materials and varies in
diameter as shown. The steel section is hollow and has an external diameter of and an
internal diameter of Section attached to by a rigid plate, is a diameter
solid bronze bar, and section is a solid copper bar with a diameter of A force of
is applied on the rigid plate at a force is applied at point and a
force is applied at point Ignore the solid plate in your calculations.
a Determine the internal axial forces in members and specify direction and
whether they are in tension or in compression and draw an axial force diagram.
b Calculate the lateral deformation, Elat, of each section, specify if the deformation is a
contraction or an expansion.
c If the temperature decreases from initially to what will be the displacement
including displacement induced by the applied forces of point with regards to
d Draw an axial displacement diagram for the structure after the temperature reduction.
