Chapter 10 Problem 10-46

Question

A single strain gage, placed in the vertical plane on the outer surface and at an angle \(60^{\circ}\) to the axis of the pipe, gives a reading at point \(A\) of \(\epsilon_{A}=-250\left(10^{-6}\right)\). Determine the principal strains in the pipe at this point. The pipe has an outer diameter of 1 in. and an inner diameter of 0.6 in. and is made of C86100 bronze.

Solution

Problem 10-46A single strain gage, placed in the vertical plane on the outer surface and at an angle 60 to the -6axis of the pipe, gives a reading at point A of PA = -250x10 . Determine the principal strains inthe pipe at this point. The pipe has an outer diameter of 1 in. and an inner diameter of 0.6 in.and is made of C86100 bronze.
