Strength Of Materials

  1. Determine the temperature rise necessary to induce buckling in a 1 m long circular rod of diameter 40 mm shown in the figure below. Assume the rod to be pinned at its ends and the coefficient of thermal expansion as 20 × 10–6/°C. Assume uniform heating of the bar.
    1. 49.35°C
    2. 48.51°C
    3. 59.35°C
    4. 48.25°C
Correct Option: A


Let Bucking load be P
δl = αΔTL

∴ ΔT =
δl
- (i)
αL

We know:
δl =

Pcolumn =
π²EI
- (iii)[Both ends hinged]

Compare equation (ii) + (iii)
AE
δl
=

- (iv)
LA

Putting the value of equation (iv) in equation (i)
ΔT =
