FUNDAMENTALS OF

DEFORMABLE BODIES
ENGINEERING MECHANICS
 STATICS  Effects and distribution of forces
on rigid bodies which are remain
at rest External effects of
forces on rigid bodies

 Motion of rigid bodies caused by


 DYNAMICS the forces acting upon them

 STRENGTH OF MATERIAL
 Relations between externally applied loads and their internal effects on bodies.
 The deformations, however small, are of major interest.
P  STATICS assumes that the material (bar
and cable) supporting the load is rigid.
The only concern is the magnitude of the
kg reaction (P) that shall maintain
equilibrium.

 STRENGTH OF MATERIAL assumes that


the supporting materials are deformable
bodies. The concern is on the maximum
load that the whole assembly can carry
without allowing the supporting
materials break or bend.
STRESS
 Stress is the expression of force applied to a unit area of surface. It
is measured in psi
 Another unit of stress which is not commonly used is
 the dynes (cgs unit). Stress is the ratio of force over area.

Stress =

SIMPLE STRESS
 Normal Stress

 Shearing Stress

 Bearing Stress
NORMAL STRESS
 The strength of a material per unit area or unit strength.
 It is the force on member divided by area, which carries the
force, formerly express in psi, now in

P - applied normal load in Newton (N)


-perpendicular with the cross section (Normal force)
- compression/tension
A - area in m
1. A hollow steel tube with an inside
diameter of 100 mm must carry a
tensile load of 400 kN. Determine the P= A

outside diameter of the tube if the P= 400kN = 400 000 N


stress is limited to 120 MN/m2 . = 120 MN/ =120 Mpa

D= 119.36 mm
2. A homogeneous 800 kg bar AB is supported W=800 kg. (9.81)
at either end by a cable as shown in Fig. P-105. W= 7848 N
Calculate the smallest area of each cable if the
stress is not to exceed 90 MPa in bronze and
120 MPa in steel.
3. Determine the largest weight W
that can be supported by two wires
shown in Fig. P-109. The stress in
either wire is not to exceed 30 ksi.
The cross-sectional areas of wires AB
and AC are 0.4 in2 and 0.5 in2,
respectively.
4. Find the stresses in
members BC, BD, and CF for
the truss shown in Fig. P-
113. Indicate the tension or
compression. The cross-
sectional area of each
member is 1600 mm2.
PRACTICE PROBLEM:
A rod is composed of an aluminum section rigidly
attached between steel and bronze sections.
Axial loads are applied at the positions indicated.
If P= 3000 lb. and the cross-section area of the
rod is 0.5

1. Determine the stress in steel.


2. Determine the stress in bronze.
