Mechanics of solid (MEC 201)

Q.1 For the overhanging beam, find the displacement at the left end.

Q.2 For the state of stress shown, determine the principal stresses and the principal direction.
Show result on a sketch of an element aligned with the principal direction.

Q.3 The state of stress at a point is shown with respect to the xy-axes. Determine the
equivalent state of stress with respect to the x’y’-axes. Display the result on a sketch of an
element aligned with x’y’-axes.
Q.4 The strain measured with a 45° strain rosette are. Using E=200 GPa and ν=0.3. Find the
principal stresses and their directions. Show the results on a sketch of a properly oriented
element.

Q.5 The properties of the cantilever beam AB are E= 200 GPa, and I=60×106 𝑚𝑚4 . The stiffness
of the spring supporting end A is k= 600kN/m. If the spring is initialy undeformed , determine
the force in he spring when the 75 kN load is apllied to the beam.

Q.6 Determine all support reactions for the propped cantilever beam ABC
