The document discusses determining the material performance index for two beam structures: 1) A simply supported beam with a concentrated load at its center. 2) A cantilever beam loaded at its free end to produce a specified deflection. It asks the reader to develop a figure of merit to minimize the weight of the cantilever beam for a given stiffness using material properties from a list, and to select the best material based on performance alone and based on performance and cost.

Determine the material performance index for a light,
stiff beam. The beam is simply supported with a concentrated load at midlength.

2. A cantilever beam is loaded with force P at its free
end to produce a deflection =PL3/3EI. The beam has a circular cross section, I=r4/4. Develop a figure of merit for selecting a material that minimizes the weight of a beam for a given stiffness (P/). By using the following material properties select the best material (a) on the basis of performance and (b) on the basis of cost and performance.
