Question: a 100mm by 150mm rectangular plate qabc is deformed into...
Question details
A 100-mm by 150-mm rectangular plate QABC is deformed into the
shape shown by the dashed lines in Fig. P2.9. All dimensions shown
in the figure are in millimeters. Determine at point Q (a) the
strain components εx, εy, γxy, and (b) the principal strains and
the direction of the principal axes. My professor insisted that the
solution to this problem is wrong as it is. I cannot find the error
myself. I suspect the error is in finding Ey, but I am not
completely sure. Could someone please help me?
Aswers: Ex = (.175-.075)/150 = 667 micron, Ey = [(.025-(-.05)]/100 = 750 micron, Exy = (0-.075)/100 + (-.125-(-.05))/150 =-1250 microns...... E'........
