Problem Set
For all problems, write a problem statement, provide sketches, and comment on your thought process.
Draw free body diagrams as applicable.
1. Statically Determinate Axially-loaded Bar with Concentrated Force

The right section of the given rod is subjected to a linearly varying body force of w = 6x kN/m and a
concentrated force PC = 18 kN at point C. No distributed forces act on the left half of the rod. The
rod has a cross sectional area of A = 6 cm2 and is made of aluminum with E = 70 GPa.
(a) Find and plot the distribution of axial force N (x) (tension positive).
(b) Find and plot the distribution of normal stress (x) .
(c) Find and plot the distribution of axial strain (x) .
(d) Find and plot the distribution of axial displacement u(x)
(e) Does the displacement at B make sense? Explain your reasoning.

2. Suspended Bar
Consider the non-prismatic suspended bar with specific weight and modulus of elasticity of and E
respectively. The connection at top of the beam is fixed. Express your answers for quantities requested
below in terms of D, , l, E, and x. Let x be the longitudinal axis of the bar and make x = 0 the
bottom. Hint:: The beam is subjected to its weight. First, you need to find stress expression from
internal axial force. Note that Both area and internal axial force change along the height of the bar.
Then, you can integrate strain function and apply boundary conditions to find displacement expression.
(a) Determine an expression for the displacement in the bar, u(x).

(b) Determine an expression for the stress in the bar, (x).
3. Indeterminate Axially-loaded Bar

Consider the prismatic bar with the loading shown below. The body force, b(x), applied to this bar
has a cosine distribution as shown.
b(x) = b0 cos (x/L)

(a) Determine the boundary conditions for this bar at x = 0 and x = L.

(b) Determine an expression for the displacement in the bar, u(x) and construct the corresponding
plot.
(c) Determine an expression for the axial stress in the bar, (x) and construct the corresponding plot.
(d) Find maximums and minimum values for displacement and stress. Also, find the corresponding
locations for these values.

4. Statically Determinate Cedar Post Force and Displacement

A post carrying a load of 36 kN is made of cedar and has a diameter of 90 mm. The soil provides a
frictional resistance along the posts length that varies linearly from w = 0 at y = 0, to w = 6 kN/m
at y = 1.5 m. The Cedar modulus of elasticity is 6890 MPa.
(a) Determine the force F acting at the bottom of the post to maintain equilibrium.
(b) Determine the displacement of the top of the post relative to the bottom. You can neglect the
weight of the post.
