Chapter 6 Problem 6-65

Question

A shaft is made of a polymer having an elliptical cross section. If it resists an internal moment of \(M=50 \mathrm{~N} \cdot \mathrm{m}\), determine the maximum bending stress in the material (a) using the flexure formula, where \(I_{z}=\frac{1}{4} \pi(0.08 \mathrm{~m})(0.04 \mathrm{~m})^{3}\), (b) using integration. Sketch a three-dimensional view of the stress distribution acting over the cross-sectional area. Here \(I_{x}=\frac{1}{4} \pi(0.08 \mathrm{~m})(0.04 \mathrm{~m})^{3}\).

Solution

Step 1 of 3)

The first step in solving 6 problem number 65 trying to solve the problem we have to refer to the textbook question: A shaft is made of a polymer having an elliptical cross section. If it resists an internal moment of \(M=50 \mathrm{~N} \cdot \mathrm{m}\), determine the maximum bending stress in the material (a) using the flexure formula, where \(I_{z}=\frac{1}{4} \pi(0.08 \mathrm{~m})(0.04 \mathrm{~m})^{3}\), (b) using integration. Sketch a three-dimensional view of the stress distribution acting over the cross-sectional area. Here \(I_{x}=\frac{1}{4} \pi(0.08 \mathrm{~m})(0.04 \mathrm{~m})^{3}\).
From the textbook chapter Bending you will find a few key concepts needed to solve this.
