Problem no.6<br />

Determine the stresses at point A and B of the split ring shown in<br />

fig.1.9a<br />

Solution:<br />

Redraw the critical section as shown in the figure.<br />

Radius of centroidal axis rc = 80mm<br />

Inner radius of curved beam ri = 80 <br />

Outer radius of curved beam ro = 80 + <br />

Radius of neutral axis rn = <br />

<br />

= √√<br />

<br />

<br />

<br />

= 50mm<br />

= 110mm<br />

=77.081mm<br />

Applied force F = 20kN = 20,000N (compressive)<br />

Area of cross section A = π<br />

d2 = π<br />

x602 = 2827.433mm 2<br />

Distance from centroidal axis to force l = rc = 80mm<br />

Bending moment about centroidal axis Mb = FI = 20,000x80<br />

=16x10 5 N-mm<br />

Distance of neutral axis to centroidal axis e = rc rn<br />

= 80 77.081<br />

=2.919mm
