    housing. The bearing is manufactured from high strength steel. The survivability
    requirements require that the structure be capable of withstanding a decrease in
    temperature of -90° F.

    • E = 10,000,000 psi
    • α = 13 parts/million/°F
    Steel Bearing Properties
    • E = 30,000,000
    • α = 8 parts/million/°F
    • OD = 13.500 in.

    Example Problem 2:

    The thin walled pressure vessel shown below has an inside diameter of 24 in. and a
    wall thickness of ½ in. The vessel is subjected to an internal pressure of 300 psi. In
    addition, a torque of 192,583 Ft-lbs is applied to the vessel through rigid plates at each
    end. The vessel is manufactured from A-36 structural steel.

    Determine:
    1. The maximum normal stress and shear stress at a point on the surface away
    from the ends.
    2. The Von Mises stress.

    Example Problem 3:
