Chapter 2, Problem 2.11

(choose chapter or problem)

Each cable has a cross-sectional area of 100 mm2 and is made of anelastoplastic material for which sY 5 345 MPa and E 5 200 GPa.A force Q is applied at C to the rigid bar ABC and is graduallyincreased from 0 to 50 kN and then reduced to zero. Knowing thatthe cables were initially taut, determine (a) the maximum stressthat occurs in cable BD, (b) the maximum deflection of point C,(c) the final displacement of point C. (Hint: In part c, cable CE isnot taut.)Fig. P2.107
