Question:

The assembly shown in the figure consists of a brass core (diameter d1 = 0.25 in.) surrounded by a steel shell (inner diameter d2 = 0.28 in., outer diameter d3 = 0.35 in.). A load P compresses the core and shell, which have length L = 4.0 in. The moduli of elasticity of the brass and steel are Eb = 15 × 106 psi and Es = 30 × 106 psi, respectively.
(a) What load P will compress the assembly by 0.003 in.?
(b) If the allowable stress in the steel is 22 ksi and the allowable stress in the brass is 16 ksi, what is the allowable compressive load Pallow? (Suggestion: Use the equations derived in Example 2-5.)
